Both wood and PVC plantation shutters are good options to choose from. You can choose any of them as per your preferences. However, there are some differences that you need to know.
For wet areas such as the kitchen or bathroom, you can go for PVC plantation shutters as they are water-resistant. Also, bathroom windows are small in size, and hence, you don’t need to compromise style due to panel configurations. PVC shutters are also durable and lightweight and are reinforced with an aluminium core to prevent warping. Also, they are less expensive than wood shutters.
On the other hand, wood shutters offer a classic, timeless, and aesthetically rich appeal to the room. Also, they are highly sturdy, warp-resistant, and can be painted and stained in the colour of your choice. They are lightweight compared to PVC shutters. They are best-suited for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms except for bathrooms and kitchens.
