Solid surface materials are prized for their seamless look, customizability, and light-diffusing potential—and they truly shine when paired with our edge-lit LED backlighting systems. At Nu World Custom Lighting and Design, we help designers, architects, and fabricators across the U.S. and Canada illuminate these surfaces with elegance and precision.

We’ve integrated our 6mm frameless LED panels behind solid surface projects in San Diego, Dallas, Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and Austin—bringing subtle luminosity to reception desks, feature walls, kitchen islands, and retail environments.


What Makes Solid Surface Lighting So Effective

  • Uniform Translucency: Materials like Corian® Arctic Ice and Corian® Glacier Ice are specially formulated to transmit light evenly—offering soft, glowing effects perfect for backlighting.

  • Seamless Design Integration: Solid surface materials can be thermoformed, joined invisibly, and integrated with sinks and hardware, making them ideal for clean, glowing designs.

  • Hygienic & Durable: Non-porous and easy to clean—essential qualities for high-touch environments.

Our LED panels are designed to complement your solid surface material, with options including:

  • Slim, framed or frameless 6mm edge-lit panels

  • Custom cutouts to accommodate sinks, fixtures, or complex shapes
