Worktop in Corian®
Corian® is a material beloved by many. It offers a unique design, incredible durability, and a multitude of options.
Advantages of Corian® worktops
With a Corian® countertop, you can enjoy the benefits of multiple countertop materials in one solution. Some of the advantages include:
- Wide range of colour options
- Exclusive appearance
- Versatility for any kitchen style
- Easy cleaning and maintenance
What is Corian® made of?
Corian® worktops are made from a homogeneous composite material composed of one-third acrylic and two-thirds natural minerals. This durable combination is then infused with the desired colour, resulting in a robust and visually appealing worktop.
One of the notable features of Corian® worktops is the seamless integration. The material is seamlessly welded together, ensuring that the seams are virtually invisible. This creates a uniform and beautiful appearance, adding an exclusive touch to any kitchen design.
How much does a Corian® worktop cost?
Corian® is indeed considered an exclusive material and is typically priced higher compared to other types of worktops. The exact cost of a Corian® worktop will depend on various factors, including the size of the worktop and any additional features or customization options.
To obtain an accurate price estimate for a Corian® worktop tailored to your specific requirements, it is recommended to schedule a non-binding meeting with a kitchen expert from your nearest store. During the meeting, the expert can assess your needs, discuss design options, and take measurements to provide you with detailed information about the cost of a Corian® worktop for your kitchen.
Worktop with many options
A Corian® worktop offers a wealth of design possibilities. Its vast array of colors and finishes means you can tailor it to your taste, whether you prefer a matte or high-gloss finish.
However, it's important to note potential color variances in separate deliveries. To ensure consistency, especially if you're incorporating elements like a kitchen island, it's advisable to order all worktop sections in a single batch.
Maintaining your Corian® worktop
A Corian® worktop is known for its easy maintenance. For regular cleaning, a damp cloth is typically all you need to keep the worktop clean and free from debris. In case of more stubborn stains or dirt, you can use liquid dish soap and water to gently clean the surface.
If your Corian® worktop has a matte finish, it is recommended to use a cleaning agent with a mild abrasive effect to maintain its appearance.
In the event that unwanted scratches appear on the worktop, they can often be removed through polishing. While minor scratches can be addressed with DIY polishing methods, for more significant scratches or better results, it is advisable to seek the assistance of a professional to ensure proper care and restoration of the worktop's surface.
Creating a hygienic kitchen environment
With a Corian® worktop, you have the option to seamlessly weld the worktop and sink together, without visible seams. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the sink but also makes it more hygienic by eliminating the gap between the sink and the worktop. It creates a smooth and seamless surface that is easier to clean and maintain.
If you prefer a stainless steel sink, you can also choose an undermount installation. This means that the sink is mounted underneath the worktop, creating a clean and minimalist look without any visible edges or rims. This not only enhances the overall design but also makes it easier to clean the worktop as there are no obstacles or edges to disrupt the flow of wiping or sweeping debris into the sink.
