Disclaimer Colours

A Corian disclaimer colour refers to specific, typically dark or heavily pigmented, shades of DuPont Corian solid surfaces that are more prone to showing scratches, dirt, and daily wear and tear. Because of their high-maintenance nature, manufacturers issue a "disclaimer" notifying consumers that these colors are not recommended for high-use, horizontal areas like kitchen countertops.

Higher Maintenance

Dark, solid, or glossy colours will show everyday wear and tear, such as scratches, dust, and stains, far more easily than lighter or textured, patterned colours.

Not a Product Defect

 The increased visibility of scratches and marks on these colors is considered a characteristic of the material, not a defect. Therefore, such wear is generally not covered by the 10-year warranty.

Best Use Cases

These colours are best suited for areas with low contact, such as vertical surfaces, or as accent/inlay pieces, rather than main workspace countertops.

"Deep Colour" Exception

While many dark colours are disclaimed, Corian’s "Deep Colour" series often uses proprietary technology to improve durability and reduce the visibility of marks compared to older, dark, non-disclaimed colours.
