Stainless Steel Sinks

Consider carefully the sink areas of your laboratory. There are three types of sinks suitable for laboratory use. All are manufactured in 316 grade Stainless Steel.

The complete top with integral bowl

This unique InterFocus design is a complete Stainless Steel worktop complete with a number of configurations of integral bowls, in various sizes. Manufactured in 316 grade stainless steel they incorporate an anti-drip edge to contain spillage, and are particularly suitable for Radio Active areas, or where electrophoresis apparatus is in use. The area to the side of the bowl, may be manufactured either with a flat surface, gently sloping to the bowl, or with traditional raised drainage runners. Additionally we are able to incorporate a wash hand basin, which is of particular interest where space is limited. An emergency shower may also be included (contact us for taps for these items) A wide range of configurations and bowl sizes are available. We use the BROEN range of taps and service fittings as standard , although we are able to supply alternatives if specified.

Inset Stainless Steel Sinks and Bowls

Inset stainless steel sinks and bowls are available either with an integral drainer, or as individual bowls. These are set into the worksurface and have a slightly raised lip. Taps may be set into the stainless steel top or set into the worksurface in the case of individual bowls. Alternatively bowls may be supplied with a flat flange for fixing beneath the worksurface. These are suited to Trespa worktops but are not recommended for use with laminate. In this instance the hole is machined in the work surface and the bowl mounted beneath with special fixing clips. This particular type enables drainage grooves to be machined into the work surface. Particularly suitable where areas need to be sluiced down.

Epoxy Resin Sinks & Bowls

Epoxy Integrated Sink tops

A range of single bowl double drainer sinktops that achieve levels of performance and ergonomic efficiency through being moulded as completely homogeneous seamless units. Sinktops include an integrally moulded central sink with sloping drainers to each side and moulded edging all round. A flat area is provided to the rear of the sink on which to mount any taps required.

Epoxy Sink Bowls

Overhang

An overhang (underslung) sink is bonded and screwed to the underside of a worktop with the worktop slightly overhanging the sink opening. This type of fitment is also commonly referred to as 'underslung'.  This fitment is adequate for many general laboratory applications.

Drop-On

Drop-on sinks are designed to be easily fitted to any type of worktop material. They have self-rimming flanges which will conceal the core layer of a laminated worktop. The sink is self-supporting on its integral flange and can be bonded in place with silicone sealant or Epoxy Resin grout.

Drop-In

Drop-in sinks have a gloss finish to the top of the sink flange and feature a smooth radius to the top inside corner. They are designed to fit flush into a rebated cut out in a worktop, and be sealed in place with silicone sealant or Epoxy Resin grout. These sinks are designed for use with any worktop material, but are particularly suitable for use with laminate worktops. They are fitted through the worktop from above and therefore cover the core material of the laminate which would otherwise be exposed.
