CORIAN® is... Magazine - Volume Two, Number Two

Gebrüder Merten GmbH & Co, KG, has launched its Epoca range of switches.

The Switch Is On
A German manufacturer of electrical switches, Gebrüder Merten GmbH & Co, KG, has launched its Epoca range of switches. Touch-plates of CORIAN
® provide rich, warm contrasts to surrounding metal plates. Merten chose CORIAN® over alternative materials for its strength, durability and ease of maintenance. The Epoca line of switches was named 1995 Product of the Year by the Fachverband Kunststoff-Konsumwaren (an association for consumer goods made with synthetic materials). Components of CORIAN® are manufactured by Pfeiffer & Söhne GmbH of Germany, an authorized fabricator of CORIAN®.
