Corian bathroom countertops or vanity tops make for beautiful additions to any bathroom installation, whether you’re doing it yourself or having a professional do the work for you. Corian worktops are manufactured and sold separately as well as within vanity units. So you can flex your cabinetry around your stunning new Corian vanity top or buy the whole piece as a single unit.

Corian bathroom sinks are serious style statements. Available in both single washbasin and double washbasin options, Corian sinks give you the flexibility to bring a high-end luxury to your washroom, whatever the space you have. And, because they’re made to measure, in true artisanal fashion, you can even get them cut to bespoke dimensions to fit in the most awkward of bathroom spaces.

Are Corian baths good? They are next-level good! A Corian bathtub is a beautiful addition to any home.

What’s more, the sheer choice of styles available makes shopping for Corian bathtubs worth it.

London DuPont™ Corian® Ultra Slim Shower Tray - 120x80

Corian shower trays 

A Corian shower pan is ideal for a bathroom that gets a lot of footfall because it’s completely non-porous and performs brilliantly under the heat of a hot shower. Whether you choose a raised shower pan or an ultra-slim option, Corian shower tray sizes can be made to order so they can fit any size of bathroom and any shape of luxury, walk-in shower.

Corian cabinets 

If you’re looking for consistency of style from your interior design choices, you’ll may want to choose a Corian bathroom cabinet to go with your other fixtures and fittings. When people think of solid surface cabinets, they tend to think of Corian cabinet tops, which you’d tend to find in the kitchen, but Corian cabinets are incredibly popular in the bathroom, too. Whether it's wall-hung, with beautiful Corian cabinet doors and Corian drawers, or a freestanding open cabinet with Corian Shelves, Corian cabinet hardware is a durable and stylish choice.

Corian bathroom colours

When choosing Corian in the bathroom, many of us naturally think of it in Glacier White, as this is the most popular Corian colour. However, there’s a huge range of Corian colours available to suit all manner of tastes and styles, from the desaturated cyan-like subtlety of Corian® Verdant to the rich black of Corian® Deep Nocturne. The only limit to how you incorporate Corian colours into your bathroom is your imagination.
