Specify, Fabricate and Use Corian® Solid Surface with Confidence.

Corian® Solid Surface is an advanced blend of two-thirds natural minerals and one-third acrylic resin. It is the original, trusted and global Number One Solid Surface, having been made by DuPont™ since 1967.

It is backed by comprehensive DuPont™ Warranties – the Corian® Solid Surface 10 Year Residential Warranty covers installation as well as product replacement, and is also transferable to new owners – providing enhanced peace of mind.

The New Zealand Corian® Solid Surface Colour Collections contain desirable colours and patterns at a range of price points. These have been cherry-picked from the DuPont™ Global Colour Palette to suit New Zealand design. The most popular colours and patterns are supported by a unique selection of matching and fully integratable sinks and basins.

Innovations such as the Corian® Organics Collection colours (where each sheet is entirely unique), Corian® Charging Surface (for wireless charging of phones and tablets) and Deep Colour Technology™ (which makes black colours more user-friendly) ensure Corian® Solid Surface continues to evolve.

The qualified network of Authorised Corian® Solid Surface Fabricators are experts and are comprehensively trained and then audited to ensure quality, best practice and compliance. Click here to find an Authorised Fabricator.

Finally, APT, the New Zealand Distributor, has expert team members who have been working with Corian® Solid Surface for over 20 years.

With all this, it is no wonder Corian® Solid Surface can absolutely be specified, fabricated and used with confidence.

DURABLE
Corian® Solid Surface keeps its good looks and survives the impact nicks and cuts that can occur with daily wear and tear.

TOUGH
Since its introduction, Corian® Solid Surface has proven itself to be remarkably durable, a versatile material that is easy to live with in both domestic and commercial environments. Corian® cannot delaminate, the joints are inconspicuous and fluids cannot penetrate. 

EASY TO CLEAN
Corian® Solid Surface has a non-porous surface that prevents dirt and stains from penetrating the material. Marks and stains stay on the surface and can easily be removed with a soft cloth and Ajax™ Spray’n’Wipe™. Tougher stains respond well to Jif™ Cream Cleanser and a soft cloth. 

NON-POROUS
Corian® Solid Surface is non-porous and hygenic. Its smooth surface does not allow liquids to penetrate and that makes it easy to clean. Bacteria and mould have nowhere to take root. When Corian® looks clean, it really is clean. 

REPAIRABLE
Corian® Solid Surfaces are renewable and inherently environmentally friendly. Stains can be erased without a trace by using standard household cleaners. Just a little effort will soon return the surface of Corian® to mint condition, and if the worst happens, cracks can usually be repaired on site. 

SEAMLESS
Colour-coordinated Joint Adhesive bonds Corian® Solid Surface with inconspicuous seams. This results in a smooth surface that enables you to create large designs fashioned from a single element. The seamless look of integrated Corian® Solid Surfaces, sinks and basins also means there are no crevices to trap dirt or bacteria.
