Charles H. DeMirjian (1925-) was a packaging design manager with E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company. He attended a fine arts school in Philadelphia that is now part of the University of the Arts, followed by studies at the Charles Morris Price School of Advertising and Journalism that was housed in the Poor Richard Club. He was employed, from approximately 1951 to 1954, as Sales Promotion Manager of the Sun Ray Drug Company, then the largest drug store chain in Philadelphia.

Seeking a job with greater design responsibility, DeMirjian joined the Fabrics & Finishes Dept. of E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company in July 1954, at a time when DuPont was placing greater emphasis on marketing to the consumer. In that role, DeMirjian worked primarily with the marketing of Duco® and Lucite® paint products. A new Consumer Products Division was formed within the department in 1963, and DeMirjian became Manager of Packaging Design. He was primarily a manager of designers, helping to establish design parameters and making the final selections from work submitted by subordinates and subcontractors. DeMirjian supervised an integrated approach that combined marketing research, advertising and package design.

DeMirjian began working with the Corian® line in the early 1980s and helped turn what had been a profit losing business into a profit making one through the enlistment of proper advertising and merchandising. Launched in 1967, Corian is widely used non-porous solid surface material that is stain resistant, repairable and even recyclable. It is largely used in bathroom and kitchen applications as countertops. Offered in a wide variety of colors, Corian can also be formed into any shape, making it a popular medium for use by designers.
