A brief historical overview
Before there were modern household plumbing systems as we know them today, people made do with other washing and dishwashing aids. A simple wash bowl and jug were generally used for personal hygiene. In the kitchen, pouring stones (washbasins) already fulfilled their role as functional everyday companions in the Middle Ages. Even then, different types of washing and dishwashing aids were used depending on the area of application.
In the 19th century, the first washbasin, the so-called bathroom washbasin, was finally connected to running water, a first important milestone. From this point onwards, the development of the washbasin took off. More and more households were finally connected to the new system. People enjoyed the new luxury within their own four walls. The washbasin was finally mass-produced from the 20th century onwards.
Today, there are countless variants of utility sinks in different materials for a wide range of applications. Robust, durable stainless steel washbasins in particular are becoming increasingly popular and are used in households and industry.

High-quality Stainless Steel Sink (1.4016, 1.4301) is used for the production of our Utility Sinks.
Chromium steel and chromium-nickel steel belong to the group of stainless steels (NiRoSta). Stainless steel is defined as having a minimum chromium content of 10.5% and a maximum carbon content of 1.2%. A resistant material that can be used in many different ways. Chrome-nickel steel 1.4301 of corrosion resistance class 2 is ideal for the manufacture of wash troughs, which are used for example in the private sector (indoors and outdoors), in the food industry or in agriculture . This Stainless Steel variant is a true all-rounder and, in addition to excellent corrosion protection, it also offers the best price-performance ratio in our opinion.

Anyone looking for a utility sinks should therefore take a close look at the material.
The following material offers can often be found on the market:
Polystyrene (PS) or polypropylene (PP). Two plastics that are frequently used in the production of plastic utility sinks.
Ceramic is often used for hand basins or washbasins in living areas.
Steel washbasins are usually wash troughs made of enameled steel.
Natural stone washbasins are particularly popular with customers because of their appearance.
The material granite (granite aggregate) is also occasionally used to make wash troughs, washbasins or hand basins.
In contrast to plastic, Stainless Steel is easy to repair and therefore also more durable. Stainless Steel can therefore also score points when it comes to sustainability.
If you compare ceramic with Stainless Steel, it quickly becomes clear that Stainless Steel is more resistant and easier to repair.
Stainless steel is more hygienic and robust. Enameled steel cannot be repaired even if the surface is slightly damaged.
Although natural stone is beautiful, it is difficult to install. Unpolished natural stone surfaces can also discolor easily. Stainless Steel Sinks score points in comparison with color fastness and hygiene. Stainless Steel Sinks can also be a visual eye-catcher: Novum

Stainless steel is a sustainable material and is therefore in tune with the times. It is recyclable and is characterized by a particularly long service life.
The surface of stainless steel wash troughs is abrasion-resistant and does not flake off even under heavy loads. This is a particular advantage in industry, but also in the home.
