What is Thermoforming?
Thermoforming is a cost-effective and efficient way to manipulate plastic to create custom interior architectural designs and structures. Common products made by thermoforming include Baby Bathing Bowls, Modular Vanities, Bathroom Partitioning Systems, and Wall Panels.
What is the Thermoforming Process?
The thermoforming process involves the heating and molding of temperature-sensitive materials, known as thermoplastics. Once the thermoplastic cools, it once again becomes extremely hard. This creates a new, usable product.

Did you ever hear the saying…”your right hand doesn’t know what your left hand is doing”? People tend to use that saying to describe a state of confusion. Many times I use it to describe the construction industry. Don’t get me wrong, I live and breathe the construction industry and am positive about the industry’s condition today and in the future.
Here’s a right hand/left hand example. We are working on a project where the design called for the ceiling to be filled with HVAC equipment leaving no room for the lighting fixtures. Not a good situation. How the conflict arose might never be known. What is certain is that the complexities of design changes to please an owner and mechanical requirements to provide a climate controlled building created a conflict. Everyone was working with the best of intentions, yet the design remained in conflict with reality. With more collaboration, I think these types of events can be discovered and resolved in the preconstruction and budgeting phase of projects.
At A.S.S.T., we help our customers deal with problems like this all the time. Not just to solve the existing problem but to prevent problems from happening in the future.
The only way we can be real problem solvers though is if our customers bring us into the project earlier rather than later. That way, we may foresee a problem and suggest the use of 3D software. Or, we may suggest an innovative product like Sculptcor, made from Corian. A.S.S.T. is the only manufacturer of Sculptcor where we use a unique process to apply heat and pressure to the Corian to give it a 3 dimensional surface. The result is an exciting, textured and durable surface that will endure for many years. If we are brought in early, we can let the right hand know what the left hand is planning so that both hands can work together.
If you know other right hand/left hand examples from the construction industry, please let me know at russberry@asst.com.

- Wall colors
- Aisle widths
- Display-rack heights
- Merchandised focal points

Over 30 years ago, DuPont discovered an innovative way to blend natural materials with acrylic resin to create a unique solid surface product called Corian. Ever since that day, companies have been coming up with new and interesting ways to utilize this dynamic material.
Because of its versatility and more than 100 tones and patterns, A.S.S.T. uses Corian for everything from modular vanities and wall panels to bathroom partitioning systems and sculptures. With the help of thermoforming, Corian conforms to your imagination and your designs. Intricate patterns and textures can be carved into Corian, allowing you to completely customize your next project.
Virtually seamless Corian and A.S.S.T. combine to create subtle, inviting backdrops for any environment, whether it is a retail, education, entertainment, corporate, or even a healthcare venue.
Benefits of Corian Include:
Durability: Color and patterns run all the way through the material and thus cannot wear away.
Easy to Clean: Corian is non-porous and thus resistant to stains, making it easy to clean.
Hygienic: With no pours, mold and mildew have nowhere to hide.
Scratch Resistant: Should any damage occur, it can be repaired right on-site, saving both labor and resources.
Completely Renewable: This makes Corian extremely environmentally friendly.
Non-Toxic: Even when exposed to flame, Corian is one of the least toxic materials around.
Heat Resistant: This is why Corian is one of the most popular countertop materials around.
Corian is the perfect material for every room, from the kitchen to the bathroom and everywhere in between.
