The benefits of granite kitchen sinks
Stainless Steel kitchen sinks are always in fashion and look stunning in pretty much every style of kitchen, so it’s no surprise that it remains one of the most popular sink materials. But as the trend for colourful kitchens continues to go from strength to strength, granite sinks have become increasingly sought-after, too.
Available in a wide range of shades, this material of the moment really can transform your hard-working kitchen sink into a stylish centrepiece for the hub of your home. Ideal if you’re looking to add subtle splashes of colour or complement a bolder scheme, a granite sink can bring a unique look and feel to your kitchen. And with their luxuriously warm, subtle shine, these tactile granite sinks will introduce a touch of texture, too.
Beauty & brawn
As practical and functional as they are beautiful, granite kitchen sinks are also incredibly durable, making them a fantastic addition to busy family kitchens. Made exclusively by Franke from quartz and granite, Fragranite is a super strong material that is resistant to burns, dents, chips and stains while being easy to clean. And, for added peace of mind, Franke Fragranite sinks are finely textured and non-porous, therefore ensuring high hygiene standards.
True colours
The kitchen is the perfect place to experiment with colour and texture. But remember, the shades you choose can completely change the feel of your space so be sure to think carefully about the overall look you’re hoping to achieve. For example, neutral colours such as brown or beige shades are great if you’re looking to create a warm and welcoming ambiance in your kitchen, while blacks will add elegance and sophistication.
Our popular, on-trend range of Fragranite colours cater for all kitchens and lifestyles – take your pick from gorgeous greys and warm neutrals, like Oyster and Coffee, to Matt Black and Polar White. Franke’s latest hue, Fragranite Slate Grey, which is available across various sink styles, provides a warm, but intense colour that will work perfectly in every kitchen design from country to contemporary.
Colour confident kitchen designs
If you dare to be different and are longing to create an individual look and feel, try mixing and matching colours and finishes in the kitchen. They say opposites attract so why not contrast a gorgeous Matte Black sink, such as our Fresno FSG 611 Fragranite inset model, with a light-coloured worktop for a chic and sophisticated look. Black is simply always in style and our Matt Black Fragranite sinks will also look stunning when co-ordinated with sleek black taps, appliances and even worktops.

Coloured granite sinks will pair beautifully with metallic and Stainless Steel taps too – take for example a Polar White Fragranite kitchen bowl, like our Maris MRG 110-72, with one of our gorgeous Gold or Copper taps for a warm, contemporary vibe. At Franke we have a comprehensive portfolio of kitchen taps to choose from to help you create your perfect look.
Our Fragranite sinks come in a range of styles and sizes and can help you take the latest kitchen worktop trends to the next level, whether you’re going for natural materials like wood, stone or marble or opting for composite or laminate.
