NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESCorian solid surfacing from CASF Australia for reception areasToday's healthcare facilities recognise the importance of creating patient environments that encourage comfort and healing, while eliminating the cold institutional feeling that formerly prevailed in hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare settings. Corian® offers a balance of aesthetics and performance properties that make it suitable for numerous healthcare applications such as in the recently completed Austin Hospital Tower in Melbourne's north-east. Corian® was used by STHDJ for the nurse stations, reception counters and bed heads. Corian® is an excellent choice, because due to its non-porous nature, it is a hygienic surface, it is practical for healthcare. It can also be molded and formed, which means it can be used in areas that need to accommodate wheelchairs, with no sharp edges or corners. |
