Explore our primary solid surface sheets and modular tops, selected by top Kiwi designers for residential and commercial joinery applications.
Understanding the shift towards safe, sustainable, and high-performance benchtop alternatives in the Kiwi market.
The New Zealand building and design industry is undergoing a significant transformation regarding safety and material specifications. Following the complete ban on engineered stone containing high levels of crystalline silica in neighboring Australia, New Zealand's WorkSafe and local building councils have intensified scrutiny on benchtop fabrication safety.
Acrylic Solid Surface material stands out as a 100% silica-free alternative. Composed of acrylic resins (PMMA), natural minerals (ATH), and pigments, it poses no risk of silicosis during cutting, polishing, and installation. This makes Koris solid surfaces the preferred choice for fabricators in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch who prioritize worker safety alongside premium architectural aesthetics.
Compliance is paramount in New Zealand's residential and commercial construction sectors. To satisfy the strict guidelines of the NZBC, materials must demonstrate durability, fire resistance, and safety in food preparation zones.
Our solid surface sheets carry CE Certification, verifying their compliance with European safety, health, and environmental protection standards. This international backing provides local architects, specifiers, and developers with peace of mind. Our products easily align with NZBC Clause B2 (Durability), Clause C (Protection from Fire), and Clause G3 (Food Preparation and Prevention of Contamination), making them suitable for high-density housing developments, hospitals, and educational facilities.
Guarantees safe fabrication and installation, protecting Kiwi workers and ensuring compliance with modern environmental health regulations.
Meets rigorous European quality standards, providing seamless structural integrity and reliable long-term performance for NZ projects.
Impervious to water, bacteria, and stains. Ideal for residential kitchens and high-sanitation healthcare environments across New Zealand.
In an era of accelerated internet communication where information can be difficult to verify, we deeply understand that what is truly trustworthy are the promises tested by time. The Koris story is about this steadfast, practical commitment, one that began in 1998 and spans over a quarter-century.
The Koris story begins in 1998. At that time, facing the high costs and long lead times of premium solid surface materials, as well as the general lack of character and depth in local materials, our founders established Koris with a pure passion for material science and a firm conviction in the industry's future.
We believe we are not just manufacturing sheets; we are "customizing spaces for the future." We want every sheet manufactured by Koris to instill a sense of confidence and usability in designers and fabricators.
Koris since 1998 has continually optimized its processes through practice, with experience serving design. This confidence stems from our strict selection of raw materials, meticulous attention to every batch, and unwavering adherence to delivery commitments.
Designers' desire for free-form curves never ceases. To meet this, we continually invest in R&D to refine our specialized polymer formulation, granting our sheets a longer thermoforming window and superior flexibility at molding temperatures.
The Result: Koris sheets can be molded into tighter radius curves than traditional materials. This means the buyer's project can achieve more sculptural, fluid, and complex geometries without sacrificing the material's strength and resilience.
From modern coastal homes in the Bay of Plenty to bustling commercial spaces in Queenstown, our materials are tailored to local design demands.
Kiwi homeowners love open-plan living. Our seamless joining technology allows for massive island benchtops with integrated sinks, eliminating dirty joints and maintaining a clean, minimalist aesthetic.
For cafes in Wellington or luxury hotels in Queenstown, our thermoformable sheets create organic, curved reception desks and bar tops that stand up to heavy daily wear and tear.
With non-porous surfaces that resist bacterial growth, Koris acrylic sheets are widely used in medical laboratories, dental clinics, and public washrooms across New Zealand.
At Koris, we offer not a promise of perfection, but consistent manufacturing experience since 1998, process transparency, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
We understand that a premium finish relies heavily on the quality of local fabrication. That is why we provide complete technical support to joinery shops across New Zealand.
Whether you need advice on adhesive color matching, thermoforming heating temperatures, or seamless jointing tools, our technical support team is always available to assist. We share our 25+ years of experience to ensure your local installation runs smoothly and without delay.
How Koris bridges the gap between international manufacturing and local New Zealand project execution.
Today, Koris is more than a solid surface factory; it is:

Key considerations for New Zealand builders, joiners, and architects when sourcing solid surfaces direct from the manufacturer.
With increasing regulations surrounding silica dust, acrylic solid surfaces offer a completely safe, silica-free alternative. In addition, acrylic solid surfaces allow for seamless joints, integrated sinks, and thermoformed curves, which are not possible with traditional stone. They are also easily repairable on-site if scratched.
CE Certification ensures the material meets European standards for fire safety, environmental health, and structural durability. In New Zealand, this certification serves as solid supporting documentation for architects and building consent authorities (BCAs) to demonstrate compliance with clauses of the New Zealand Building Code.
We regularly ship container loads to major New Zealand ports including Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington, and Lyttelton (Christchurch). Production typically takes 15 to 20 days, and transit shipping times from our factory to NZ ports range from 18 to 25 days, depending on shipping line schedules.
Yes. If you are designing for a retail store, cafe chain, or corporate office in New Zealand, you can provide us with a Pantone reference or a physical sample. Our laboratory will create a matching formulation and send a sample for your approval before full production.
