And she talked about what it means for Corian Design to transition from product brand to master brand, “As we looked at where we were headed, we saw the possibility to be so much more,” said Eaton. “We are so proud to be a part of DuPont, which continues to stand for innovation and differentiated high-performing products that make a meaningful difference in the world.”And she added this about Corian Design's new direction, “Architects and designers and consumers create beautiful spaces that are healing, that are calm, that are tranquil, that are fun.
