The focus of the kitchen is the sink and for no reason - more than half of all activities in the kitchen revolve around this area. Fruit and vegetables are washed, dishes are washed by hand, and ingredients for the dishes are prepared - cleaned and carved. Why is it important that the kitchen architecture and design meet individual requirements. The German manufacturer of kitchen faucets and sinks SCHOCK enables uncompromising perfection and offers a range of easy-care granite sinks and matching modern kitchen faucets.
Granite sinks from Schock - sustainable materials and guaranteed quality
SCHOCK products are characterized by their particular sustainability - heat-resistant, impact-resistant and durable, which have passed multiple different tests. Organic materials are used in kitchen sink materialsfibersnetworked and the sink base is reinforced with fiberglass.
SCHOCK products are made from two types of premium materials – CRISTADUR® and CRISTALITE+®, which consist of up to 80% natural quartz sand and have been specially developed to meet the requirements of kitchen architecture. The two of them are extremely resistant to the stresses of everyday life.
CRISTADUR® is an exclusive material that has a fine, smooth and gracefully shimmering surface that does not absorb dirt and liquids, but rather rolls off. Particularly easy to clean and visually appealing, it would be an excellent choice for any luxury kitchen.
Natural stone, with its rough and natural look, is prominent in every area of contemporary design. SCHOCK's granite sinks perfectly implement this and the trend towards the use of regional materials and are offered by the CRISTADUR® NATUR collection. The Kaiserstein and Rockenstein models are characterized by a rough, natural feel reminiscent of real granite and a lack of pores, which guarantees ease of care.
When it comes to interior design and design in 2016, the trend is for brown tones with an exceptional finish that balance old and new. Inspired by this trend, SCHOCK also has something to offer – slim, fashionable fittings encased in a high-quality copper jacket. All additional parts around the kitchen sink - overflow, strainer basket or rotating eccentric, are available in the same look as the fitting. This creates a stylish, color-coordinated area as the heart of the high-quality kitchen.
Carbon is a revolutionary material for technical progress that has not really been used in the kitchen sector until now. SCHOCK brings two exclusive models of sinks made of carbon-quartz composite material that would be an eye-catcher even in a first-class kitchen.
The 2016 CRISTADUR® collection offers a total of eleven different new colors for sinks - Bronze, Indigo, Stone, Puro, Polaris, Magma, Earth, Carbonium, Magnolia, Rouge, and Vintage. Several variants for the shape and organization of the kitchen sink space are possible - rectangular, square, module on the corner, with two bowls, only with a drain surface or without it at all.
CRISTALITE® is SCHOCK's other production material for kitchen sinks and has proven to be particularly popular. It is more similar to the slightly rough surface of real rock, is harder and means long-lasting joy in cooking.
In addition to the size, shape and function of the sink, the installation and coordinated appearance of the different components also play an important role in creating a beautiful overall appearance. SCHOCK offers faucet models with small accents, for example on the handle, in the corresponding color to match the sink design.
The two-bowl kitchen sink is undoubtedly particularly practical and facilitates many processes in the kitchen and provides additional convenience when preparing food.
A simple rectangular granite sink is particularly suitable for small spaces and fitted kitchens in households with 1-2 people.
Add color accents or make everything uniform and harmonious in the same shade – there is an option for every taste. Granite sinks are antibacterial, dirt-repellent and particularly easy to clean.
The kitchen sink is the central water point in the house. The kitchen faucet is used 75 times a day. The quality of materials and mixer taps is of the highest priority, as is practical use.
With regard to practical use, kitchen faucets with an adjustable and pull-out shower come into question.
The cartridge, the heart of the faucet, is important for saving water. This should be easy to use, especially when you are busy with kitchen work.
