Storm-Ready Design Project
Discussing Color Options for the Corian VideoBob is with Andrea Johnoson of DuPont Corian to see the wide variety of colors and styles of Corian solid surfacing available for countertops, tables, sinks, and backsplashes. Johnson explains that while Corian once came only in white, DuPont now offers over 100 different colors and patterns. Corian solid surface countertops are non-porous, stain and scratch resistant, easily cleaned, and backed by a great warranty from DuPont. All Corian comes 1/2-inch thick. Counter edges are built up by the fabricator then cut and shaped to form a thicker edge. The kitchen counters are Canyon, one of the new colors derived from nature. DuPont's aim with the new palette is to bring the soothing colors of nature inside. Johnson shows Bob a number of other color samples from the line including silt, which will be used in the master bath and the hall bath. Johnson adds that those baths will each have counters with integral sinks, a seamless design offered by Corian and other solid surface companies. The cost for solid surface countertops varies depending on the color, amount and type of particulate added to create a textured look, and the price grouping from the company.
