NX 501 front construction & surface.
Polished 2K PUR lacquer
A two-component polyurethane high-gloss lacquer is applied over a styrene-free polyester filler, then the front and edges are polished.
Rounded edges
All edges have a 3 mm radius. This gives the polished surface a soft outline instead of a sharp edge.
MDF core, 20 mm
The front is built on high-quality MDF, with a melamine resin-coated rear side in a matt coloured lacquer.
Same next125 system
NX 501 uses the same carcases, 125 mm grid and fittings as every other next125 range.

Caring for NX 501 fronts.
High-gloss lacquer is easy to wipe but needs gentle care to keep its shine. These points are general guidance.
Soft cloth only
Use a soft, lint-free cloth with a little lukewarm water, and dry the surface to avoid streaks.
No abrasives
Scouring pads, abrasive creams and microfibre cloths with hard fibres can scratch a polished surface.
Avoid solvents
Do not use solvent, alcohol-based or aggressive household cleaners on lacquer.
Follow your kitchen’s instructions
The care instructions supplied with your kitchen take priority over general guidance.
