Understanding the differences between different work surfaces – Corian

Corian

Corian is a non-porus, manufactured Acrylic work surface. As a manufactured work surface samples are a true reflection of the finished kitchen work surface.Ā 

The nature of Corian lends itself perfectly to people with a desire for design and functionality.

There are a number of design features that are a must with Corian:

  • A coved upstand, which allows grout or silicon lines to be raised away from the work surface;
  • a Corian sink (available in Glacier white, Cameo white, Vanilla and Bone).

Corian is jointed inconspicuously, so allows for a beautifully flowing, surface free from the visible joints you get with either Granite or Quartz surfaces.

The surface of Corian is a sanded finish which will show a silk/satin sheen. This also has the advantage that should any damage occur or the surface start to look tired over time that it can be sanded back to the original finish, adding versatility to the work surface.
