Merillat was hard to miss at the recent Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) Las Vegas. We had a lot of fun showing off the latest functional product innovations and showing booth visitors how they can make life in the kitchen easier.
Attendees couldn’t resist stopping by the booth to check out the displays and participate in activities. In the innovation zone we featured our latest products, the CoreGuard™ Sink Base, a smart solution that helps keep the cabinetry under your sink dry and clean. We also gave a sneak peak of two products that will be available soon: CornerStore™, a solution to bring more storage and easy accessibility to the challenging corner cabinet area, and the CoreGuard™ Vanity, like the kitchen sink base, but special for the bathroom.

Peg dividers for drawers can be customized so you can fit your pots and pans however you like.
If cooking is a hassle for you, it may be time to do some reorganizing. Curtis Stone, star of the reality cooking show “Take Home Chef,” thinks that a beautiful, well-organized kitchen can make a world of difference to home cooks.
Chef Curtis Stone
“When I was doing ‘Take Home Chef’ and cooking in all these different houses,” says Stone, “I was thinking, why is it so difficult to cook in people’s homes? It was so easy in a professional kitchen. Well, one of the main differences between a professional kitchen and residential kitchen is organization. But with the right organizational features, cooking can be fun and relaxing.”
Get in the Zone
According to Paul Radoy, manager of design services for Merillat, the best way to approach kitchen organization and storage is to look at the room in sections. “All kitchens have a cooking zone and a cleanup zone,” he says. “And some kitchens may have an island or pantry. Each of these areas lends themselves to various storage opportunities.”

If you’re like many homeowners, you don’t think much about the area under your sink. Or, when you do it’s because you discovered a minor leak or spill that caused staining or other damage.
Well, at Merillat we’ve been thinking about the area under the sink – we’ve been thinking about it a lot! And this is how we came up with the new CoreGuardTM Sink Base cabinet. It helps protect against under-sink damage, alerting you of minor leaks and keeping cabinets stain free. It’s durable and an overall great investment to add to your kitchen.
And because we think it’s so cool, we want to get the word out and build excitement around this innovative new product. So, we’re launching the Merillat Down Under Promotion.
