DuPont Corian is a solid, nonporous, homogeneous surfacing
material, composed of ±1/3 acrylic
resin (also known as PolyMethyl
MethAcrylate or PMMA), and ±2/3
natural minerals. These minerals are
composed of Aluminium TriHydrate
(ATH) derived from bauxite, an ore
from which aluminium is extracted.
For more information on the
composition of the material, please

The colours of Corian allow for an
almost unlimited working palette.

eye-catching harmonies.

metal, wood, stone, etc.

For complete information on colours,
refer to the latest leaflet about the
colours of Corian or to the
www.corian.com website. Hues,
patterns and textures are related by
style and character. Dark, heavily
pigmented colours of Corian will show
scratches, dust and ordinary wear and
tear more readily than lighter, textured
colours. These colours are
recommended for applications where
surface contact is light or for use as
inlays and accent colours.
