Get the look: Stunning Corian Finishes

At Kitchen Design Centre we use a wide variety of materials in our projects – but we’ve got to admit we do have a few favourites. Corian is not just one of the top choices of our clients; it’s also one we love in house due to its versatility, high quality and its sleek, professional look.

Comprised of acrylic resin and natural materials, Corian comes as a smooth, solid, non-porous and homogenous surface – perfect for a wide variety of uses. It’s manufactured in three thicknesses, ensuring suitability for everything from your cupboard doors to kitchen worktops and has that sleek finish we all love. In fact, one of the main selling points of Corian is its seamless finish – a necessity for that modern kitchen look.

 7 reasons why we love Corian

  • It’s hygienic and easy to clean.
  • It’s heat resistant up to 100 degrees Celsius – meaning no nasty marks from hot pans!
  • It’s durable and completely solid.
  • It’s available in a wide range of colours – none of which are subject to wearing away.
  • It’s hardwearing and ideal for working on – hence perfect for worktops.
  • It comes with a 10-year warranty covering both the product and installation.
  • It’s extremely complementary to all kitchen design. With its wide range of colours and unique texture, corian looks great when styled with stainless steel, wood and glass.

How to use Corian in your kitchen

As we mentioned before, Corian has an impressive range of applications. From traditional – yet stylish – worktops, to seamlessly curved islands and breakfast bars. It can literally be moulded in any way you like – meaning sink bowls and splashbacks no longer have to remain distinct from other features. Instead they can be integrated into your kitchen design with a smooth and seamless finish.

Corian also allows you to get creative with shapes. Fancy a circular island or curved S shape worktops? The malleability of Corian allows you to achieve just that, creating the kitchen of your dreams.

As Corian is available in almost any colour, you can also add a playful or dramatic touch to your kitchen with focal points. A curved red wall feature or blue fronted cupboards are great options for the more adventurous customer.

AWARD-WINNING KITCHENS FOR AN AWARD-WINNING DEVELOPER

As you may know if you’ve visited any of our showrooms in Manchester, Blackburn, Liverpool or Barrowford, we manage more than 250 kitchen projects each year here at Kitchen Design Centre. Many of these kitchens are for individual customers, but we also specialise in providing exceptional designer kitchens to housebuilders and developers. We have a particularly successful longstanding relationship with Candelisa, a prestigious Yorkshire-based property developer that is (like us) known for the peerless quality of its designs.
The company already has an impressive array of awards on its shelves, and its team have recently managed to secure their latest accolade: the Best High Volume New Housing Development at the prestigious LABC Awards!
In case you need a quick refresher, the LABC Awards are the largest business-to-business awards in the UK’s building control sector, aimed at celebrating and rewarding building projects, and the people behind them. The Best High Volume New Housing Development in question was Candelisa’s project at Countyfields, Embsay. Due to our strong relationship with the company (largely through Simon Thomas, the head of our Barrowford showroom), Kitchen Design Centre was chosen to deliver every kitchen at the Embsay development – and like Candelisa’s team, we’re hugely proud of the results.

Latest case study now live incase you missed it.

With a keen eye for design, Nicole knew the look she wanted and approached a local kitchen company. They came up with a range of designs but although there was nothing wrong with them, the couple felt that they would like an alternative design. They were already dealing with a lot of different companies for other rooms in the house and were reluctant to involve another but Anthony suggested they visited Rowan at Kitchen Design Centre Urmston to see if he could improve the design, and they were absolutely blown away with what he came up with.
