How accurate are the dimensions in the technical drawings?

Our products are handmade, so there may be very slight variations in size. Dimensions in the technical drawings are average values that may vary slightly. However, the discrepancy in the dimensions of the worktops is never greater than 2mm.

Is it better to choose a matte or polished surface?

Corian® is designed for an elegant matte finish that does not lose its appearance when time is passing by. Scratches appearing on the matte surface are less visible. They can be easily removed with an abrasive sponge number 2000. This type of surface finishing works well in contemporary bathroom interiors.
We can polish the surface at the request of a customer, however, it is not recommended.

Why the tap holes are not drilled in the washbasins delivered to the customers?

Because the customer must always have the choice between a wall-mounted or countertop
technique for positioning the faucet. The tap holes can be easily drilled by the customer or installer. We can provide all needed information on how to do it.

Do Corian® surfaces require impregnation?
