I need some kitchen plinths. What is the best material to use wood or plastic PVC?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Depends on customers preference and availability limited colours in upvc and are not as rigid as wood plinths plus plastic plinths can be static and attract hair and fluff more so

Definitely wood. Plastic is not robust enough to withstand a long life as a plinth. The most common is chipboard wood with a veneer.

I would always recommend a MFC plinth (chipboard same as kitchen).
Would also use the raw edge to the underside of the units and use a plinth seal strip.
Not very expensive but stops any water ingress.
