Discover the versatile beauty of DuPont™ Corian® Solid Surface for exterior cladding.
July 2nd, 2013
Let your creativity run free with an imaginative range of colours and aesthetics, creating the exact shapes and textures that fulfil any design requirements.

Invented by DuPont™ in 1967, Corian® is the original solid surface. Durable, long-lasting, and easy to clean, Corian® exterior cladding is as practical as it is beautiful. As a rain screen facade, it contributes to greater energy-efficiency and to sustainable building with its durability. The select spectrum of hues for facades offers superior colour stability. It also offers low moisture absorption and resistance to stains, environmental pollutants, detergents, humidity and freeze-thaw conditions.

Corian® also enables inconspicuous seams, and can be easily sanded and cleaned to restore its original appearance. Even graffiti can be removed, making this product the right choice for all facades.

Corian® can be skilfully fabricated to meet a wide range of architectural applications, including column covers, soffits and fascia and a variety of exterior details. You can form complex shapes with Corian® without the weight and cost of conventional materials. Coping, cap pieces, corner returns and other areas of critical water exposure can also be formed from Corian® to minimise joints and areas of potential migration or leakage.
