Maintenance of Corian countertops

Corian is a durable, non-porous surface with a soft, matte finish and a seamless look—ideal for daily life in the kitchen. Made from a blend of natural minerals and acrylic resin, it’s resistant to stains and moisture, and easy to care for with just a few good habits.

Daily cleaning

For everyday care, wipe the surface with a damp, soft cloth and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner or soapy water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to maintain the even, matte finish. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can damage the surface over time.

Ongoing maintenance

To refresh the surface when deep-cleaning, gently rub it down with a mild abrasive cleaner (such as scouring milk) and a non-abrasive sponge pad, using small circular motions. Rinse well and dry completely. This helps maintain the smooth feel and even appearance over time.

Preventive care

Always use a cutting board - Corian is strong, but knives can leave marks. Hot pots and pans should go on a trivet or heat pad, not directly on the surface. Wipe up spills promptly, especially from acidic or highly pigmented foods like lemon, red wine, or curry.

If damage occurs

In case of scratches, chips, or discoloration, Corian can often be restored. The material is solid all the way through, so it can be professionally sanded, polished, or even repaired by a local supplier or certified expert. They can assess the surface and recommend the best solution to bring it back to its original look and feel.
