What is Diore Solid Surface?

Diore Solid Surface is incredibly versatile, giving it endless design possibilities. We use a special heat process to form it into a variety of shapes, and it can be combined with moulded bowls and coved upstands to give the appearance of continual run of worktop. Diore Solid Surface® kitchen worktops are installed with seamless, inconspicuous joints which also give a unique flowing appearance to your worktop. Unlike many other lower cost solid surface products Diore Solid Surface® is 12mm thick, which gives better performance, appearance and design options than standard 6mm products. It is also non-porous, and the seamless joints don’t allow crevices for dirt and crumbs to accumulate, and it can be wiped clean with ease. The material does not delaminate and is resistant to scratches and knocks, although we always recommend you treat your worktop with care by using chopping boards and pan stands to prevent damage from scratches and heat.
