The true possibilities of designing with Corian® Illumination Series colors becomes readily apparent when backlit. And the type of backlight makes a big difference...

The remarkable Illumination Series brings smooth, clean, enhanced translucency to your designs. The color effects from these materials change dramatically when backlit. When the lighting system behind your design is turned on the pastel appearance disappears and is dominated by the light source aesthetics. Be creative! Test each of these with different types of light sources, the many variations and shades of white light and effects from colored light. You will be amazed by the possibilities.

Design in "on" with Corian® Arctics*, and you'll incorporate embedded particulates to create an absolutely stunning effect when lit.

The Corian® Illumination Series can be fabricated in the same manner as other DuPont™ Corian® solid surface materials, with some slight modifications. For more information on Corian® Illumination Series fabrication highlights, click here.

* Corian® Arctic colors are available in ½" thick sheets for commercial interior applications only. While Class 1 rated for flammability, these aesthetics are not intended to be used in applications lit with or near flames.
