Corian ( by DuPont) is the original and is an acrylic - I think it’s all synthetic - the other brand of this type I’ve looked at is Hi Macs. They tend to look less natural. Can look a bit plasticky and be a bit soft compared to quartz.
Dekton is sintered stone - much tougher - no resin so higher heat resistance. More lab worktop vibe etc but do market to domestic.
Quartz - silestone / Caesarstone are at the big brands - natural stone / mineral dust and chips bonded in resin - supposed to be harder than granite but not heat resistant.

does anyone have experience with different types of 'corian' solid surface worktops?
Are all the different brands more or less the same or are some better than others?
