Revolutionary New CoreGuard^™ Sink Base Cabinet on Display
We’ll also be showing off our exclusive new CoreGuard™ water resistant sink base that re-thinks base cabinet construction by specifically addressing issues such as spills and plumbing leaks. Available this fall, CoreGuard makes detection and cleaning of leaks and spills a breeze.

Corner Storage Made Easier with CornerStore^™ Cabinet
Check out cool new storage options like the CornerStore^™, our prototype corner access cabinet. Available December 2010, this product brings more storage and easy accessibility to that notoriously tight corner cabinet area and provides a high capacity alternative to the traditional Lazy Susan.

Envision your kitchen before you build with our new interactive planning tool, the Virtual Selection Center, which we’ll be unveiling at the show.

Merillat CoreGuard Sink Base

If you’re at the 2010 International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas January 19-22, you’ll be one of the first to see a demonstration of the new Merillat CoreGuard™ Sink Base, a revolutionary water-resistant base cabinet that will be available this fall.

It’s something everyone can relate to. Mark Ayers, our Vice President of Marketing, says “A lot can happen under your sink. Leaks and spills can lead to stains and damage. CoreGuard helps protect your cabinetry investment.”

The Merillat CoreGuard Sink Base is made of an engineered polymer specifically designed to resist damage from spills and leaks. The face, frame and door assembly are wood, but behind them, everything is a water-resistant, non-wood material that’s easy to clean and is stain-resistant.

The floor has a slight forward tilt and a rib design to direct any spills forward. With CoreGuard, you can see a problem right away and clean it up. It’s a low-maintenance solution in a cabinet that’s built to last.

Merillat brings new solutions to the kitchen, and CoreGuard is one we’re especially proud of. According to Mark Ayers, “It’s a revolutionary addition to the kitchen, and we think it’s something homeowners are going to demand.”

If you’re at the IBS show, stop by booth #C4143 and see it for yourself. We think it might just make a big splash. And that will be okay.
