Why designers are using Corian

- Stock availability usually excellent, even for large projects
Originally conceived in the 1960′s, Corian is an established product from DuPont and continues to enjoy an ongoing programme of research and development. Importantly, Corian is also backed by a 10 year Warranty.
A myriad of colour
Available in well over 100 colours, including bright solid colours, whites, pastels, marbled and textured colours, it is compatible – both aesthetically and practically – with many traditional materials including wood, glass and stainless steel.
Corian is combined from minerals and high-performance acrylics – a combination that gives it the smoothness and texture associated with stone, combined with wood-like workability. Its non-porous nature also makes it highly durable and easy to maintain.
Versatility is key
The versatility of Corian has been key to its success. It can be cut, routed, moulded, sandblasted, inlaid or thermoformed to create almost any form and shape. Using CNC technology, it can be profiled or engraved with precision, allowing the most creative visions to be realised.
Supplied in sheets, Corian is bonded and joined with a special adhesive, giving a smooth, seamless appearance. This can provide the appearance that large installations have been made from a single piece.
Underlining these aesthetic qualities, Corian is extremely functional, making it an ideal choice in almost any domestic or commercial interior – even in traffic environments. Highly durable, it is heat, impact and stain-resistant.
Should damage ever occur, the surface is easily repairable. It is also very easy to clean, making it suitable for the healthcare and food service sectors.
