EPD: Quartz surfacing material for countertops, 26.5 mm, 49-73 kg/m2 (avg. weight 61 kg/m2), Corian® (DuPont)

Our scientists created Corian® Quartz, previously known as Zodiaq®, for the demanding ones—the architects, designers, and homeowners who are as exacting about aesthetics as they are about performance. The sparkling crystal within Corian® Quartz balances stunning light-play with mesmerizing depth. Long-lasting and GREENGUARD and GREENGUARD Gold Certified as a low-emitting material, Corian® Quartz surfaces are a high-performance material, delivering strength, and heat and scratch resistance. The Corian® Quartz Terra Collection is the same sophisticated quartz surface as ever, but its composition includes a percentage of pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled content (Post-consumer content percentages vary by color). When properly cleaned, Corian® Quartz does not promote the growth of mold and mildew. Corian® Quartz may help contribute to U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED® points. Most colors of Corian® Quartz are NSF/ANSI Standard 51 Certified for the strictest level – Food Zone.
