I went to their wood shop and purchased stuff from them. They were shelf system mfgrs for stores, and they did those awesome racks with extruded aluminum for the heat tape and awesome edge banding. The thing with those, they looked like furniture.

Melamine has its good points (heat mass, heats slowly and evenly, cools slowly, looks nice) and bad points (weight, can't handle too much humidity). Shipping is the problem, you would probably have to ship them flat and have the customer screw them together.

I think there is always room for melamine racks in the market, especially san-mar quality.
