Materials
The modern sink has come a long way from it's humble beginnings. Gone are the days when it was a massive sink tub fixed to wall, with a wooden drainer beside it. Now, with kitchen design playing a key role in home improvement, it has ceased to be a mere workaday item.
Now it is designed to be good looking, even fashionable, as well as functional. And options are much wider in terms of materials, colours, styles and formats. Franke is always at the forefront of design implementation in the manufacture of new models and materials.
Stainless Steel
Stainless Steel is recognised throughout the world as the ultimate specification for hygiene and durability. Its elegantly modern look is often chosen as a design feature, and can also be highlighted by the use of coloured accessories.
Fragranite
Fragranite contains around 80% granite particles which give it its enormous strength and resistance to impact, scuffs and stains. It withstands temperatures of up to 280°C and maintains its appearance for a lifetime. Now SilkSheen colours are available in certain models. SilkSheen offers all the advantages of Fragranite but with a silky smooth textured surface. Fragranite is without doubt the top performance composite sink material available on the market.
Ceramic
Ceramic technology has existed for several thousand years. This natural material creates a timeless elegance and is extremely easy to maintain.
Being kiln-fired, it naturally withstands temperatures well beyond normal requirements. In White, Franke ceramic has a gloss glaze, in Oatmeal a smooth eggshell finish.
Glass
In its continuous striving for innovation and style, Franke has introduced glass as a new material for sinks and appliances into the market. Apart from its excellent properties – Franke toughened safety glass is very easy to clean, hygienic and highly scratch resistant, just to name a few – it is one of the most stylish and elegant materials you will find. It can give your kitchen exactly that exclusive and one of a kind look you are looking for!
