And that's where Corian® truly shines. Its proven performance more than fulfills expectations, reflecting well on your choice - and on you - for years to come.

Warm and Inviting

Illuminating

The natural translucency of Corian® allows it to contribute drama and definition to any installation. When backlit, Corian® glows. Surfaces become more luminous-lighter colors are warmer, softer; darker tones become richer, deeper. This quality translates to many applications, including interior and exterior lighting, inlaid fiber-optics, wall panels and other uses. Working with Corian® is truly an illuminating experience.

Formable

The formability of Corian® adds to its versatility. You can cut it. Carve it. Rout it. Drill it. Sculpt it. Bend it. Or work it like a fine wood. The ability of Corian® to be thermoformed allows it to flow with both traditional and nontraditional designs. An ordinary sheet of Corian® can be transformed into an art form...a dramatic curved stairway...a sculpted piece of furniture.

Compatible

You'll find that Corian® "plays well with others." Friendly and approachable, it blends beautifully with whatever it's paired with. Corian® is just as comfortable in a supporting role as it is taking center stage-it can be as quiet or as bold as it needs to be.

Corian® combines beautifully with chrome, stainless steel, wood, glass, brass and more. Whether you want to express simple minimalism, lush and dramatic sophistication, or cozy warmth, Corian® is totally comfortable in its surroundings, complementing everything it touches.

Corian® also works well alone, using combinations of the many colors of its palette. These combinations can create contrast. Define borders. Inlay textures. Layer color on color, tone on tone. The spectrum of possibilities is virtually endless.

Renewable

Nicks. Stains. Cuts. Scratches. While these can permanently mar most other surfaces, they won't compromise the appearance of Corian® solid surfaces. That's because Corian® can be restored to its original state, using an ordinary abrasive cleanser and a cleansing pad such as a green Scotch-Brite* pad. And, if damage does occur, Corian® can be repaired on site, saving both downtime and aggravation.

Non-Porous/Easy to Clean

Corian® solid surfaces are smooth and nonporous. As a result, they will not promote the growth of mold, mildew or bacteria. And because it's nonporous, liquids and stains can't penetrate Corian®, so it's easy to clean and maintain. Corian® is also nontoxic, and chemically nonreactive, with virtually no off-gassing at normal room temperatures, in accordance with building codes and other local restrictions.

Consistent

Whether you cut Corian® to form an edge treatment...or renew any part of its surface...the color, texture and beauty you start with will remain constant over time. Because Corian® solid surfaces are just that: solid all the way through. And they remain that way, through years of use.

Lasting Value

Your Corian® installation will last a long, long time, postponing replacement and saving on tear-out costs. Because Corian® is engineered to last, it's an investment that amortizes over time. Corian® solid surfaces are both durable and renewable. As a result, they retain their original appearance long after initial installation.

Design Considerations

To ensure the most satisfactory long-term performance for Corian® solid surfaces, please keep these considerations in mind as you decide where to install and use it: Corian® is not designed to withstand extreme heat, such as the direct application of a hot pot or pan directly from the stove or oven; a trivet should always be used.

Frequent cutting directly on a Corian® countertop is not recommended, although scratches from occasional cutting can be renewed or repaired. Like most materials, darker colours of Corian® will show wear easier than lighter colours. We do not generally recommend dark colours of Corian for high use areas. If you require more information or advice on this please contact us.
