Interior Wall Surfacing
Healthcare Application
Scottish Rite is applying Corian Festival to walls to reduce repairs and cleaning time.
®
Applications include wainscoting in operating rooms and hallways, public and patient room
vanities, window sills, patient bed head walls, nurses station desktops and walls, and food
service facilities.
Margaret Taylor, Director of Facilities, Scottish Rite Hospitals for Children, proposed
“We have significantly improved the appearance of the hospital and reduced cleaning and
maintenance costs by using Corian . Areas with Corian look better than those recently
®
®
painted. It seems like walls without Corian show every impact with gurneys, carts and
®
wheel chairs while the Corian looks almost new.”

Wainscoting
(Hard Seamed

1/4” Corian
Wall Panel
Corian has been ‘hard seamed’ into a continuous surface so there are
no difficult to clean seam areas. The ¼” thick Corian sheets are placed
on top of standard metal baseboard transition strips. A line of DuPont
silicone seals the Corian to the transition strip.
