DuPont is building induction chargers into select versions of its Corian countertops. The Corian Charging Surface will charge a mobile phone or tablet using a transmitter under the countertop to wirelessly transfer energy to a receiver within or attached to the smart device. Nearly all smart devices can be charged with a charging ring from Duracell Powermat, but charging cases also are available, and some devices are already enabled with wireless charging capabilities. To wirelessly charge using the Corian Charging Surface, users need only connect the ring or case to their mobile device and place it on a charging spot. Find local distributors at corian.com/powerup.
