Old Corian Video Showing the Manufacture of Solid Surface

We looked long and hard to try to find a video that shows how solid surface is made, however it seems the industry is relatively tight-lipped about the process. Other than a few Chinese videos with no narrative showing minor aspects of manufacturing, there is very little out there. However, this “How it is Made” video from what appears to be the early 1980s has some interviews with the folks behind DuPont Corian solid surface as well as some insightful views at the company’s continuous casting manufacturing line. While it may be outdated a bit, you will get the idea. Thanks to Willis Distribution for sharing it.

If nothing else, the aged nature of it is good for a few chuckles. Enjoy:
