Formed in 1976, Top Notch Products began as an offshoot of
Richard Buchanan’s kitchen and bath dealership. He had been using DuPont
Corian
in his kitchen and bath
applications for more than two years when he decided to make
Corian
switch plates to compliment his installations. The switch plates met with such enthusiastic response
that Richard joined forces with his father Victor Buchanan and his
neighbor, George Benninghoff to
experiment with Corian and expand the line.
Top Notch Products was the first company in the
country to thermoform Corian into such items as canisters and ice
buckets. The accessories were initially marketed through a local DuPont
distributor. Top Notch has
grown from that original lone distributor to a large national network of
customers, and those original switch plates have expanded into a full
product line of kitchen and bath accessories.
