[ChefDeCabinet_Expert]: Hidden fungal growth usually indicates poor ventilation and trapped moisture rather than poor materials. Design should include airflow behind cabinets where possible, moisture barriers against external walls, leak-proof plumbing, and immediate repair of water seepage. Even premium plywood cannot compensate for persistent dampness.
