Applications

The architectural firm AECOM, designed the use of the sunshades to not only offer a translucent glow during dusk and dawn, but to also provide an interesting array of shadows across the building as the sun sweeps by throughout the day.
The sunshades mostly alternate between 6’ (1.83 meters) and 9’ (2.74 meters) lengths with a depth of 12” (305 mm)`. To compliment the main forms, the same vertical designs are carried forward in slimmer sizes to offer architectural interest to other areas of (...)

Corian(r) Exteriors will allow some diffused light transmission, depending on colour. In general, solid light colours such as white and beige are the most translucent, and dark colours are the least translucent. The Corian(r) Illumination Series has been specifically designed with more translucency than the standard colours. Special considerations for these materials are described in the Corian(r) Illumination Series Fabrication Bulletin.
Corian(r) Exteriors can also be fabricated to (...)

For exterior wall cladding applications, Corian(r) Exteriors has typically been installed as a ventilated rain screen façade. Ventilated façades are designed to breath with a space between the cladding and the outer wall – an ideal location for insulation materials.
Corian(r) Exteriors panels are mechanically fixed to substructure fixed to the external wall of new or existing (retrofit) buildings. The “breathing” cavity or envelope systems, combined with an effective weather barrier, offer (...)
