Statement dressing

Innovative ideas are only as good as materials allow, which is why designers are always seeking out surfaces that will give them the freedom to explore new ideas.

For many designers and homeowners, DuPont¢ Corian® provides an ideal solution. Corian® can be custom molded to virtually any shape. Joins, where required, are virtually invisible, which makes it well suited to long surfaces, deep countertops and the sides of islands.

Designers also say they appreciate the soft look of Corian®, which avoids a cold, hard-edged finish. This has become more critical now that kitchens are increasingly part of an open-plan living space. As such, kitchens often need a warm, inviting look, rather than the appearance of a clinical, utilitarian work area.

Practical benefits are another key reason to specify Corian®. Because the surface is non-porous, Corian® does not promote the growth of mold, mildew or bacteria. It is also renewable stains and scratches can be sanded out to keep the surface looking like new.

Corian® comes in more than 120 colors, ranging from pure whites and neutrals to bright primary shades and stone and concrete looks.

Corian® is not limited to kitchens it can be used in various applications throughout the home.
