Commercial sinks allow foodservice staff to wash, rinse and sanitize utensils in separate basins to prevent cross-contamination. Some types of cleaning troughs require specific water supplies to ensure code compliance, including mop sinks that use faucet mount eyewash stations for decontamination.

Choose from single or multi-compartment stainless steel sinks to fit your space. Stainless steel is categorized by thickness (gauge) and quality, designated in series numbers such as 304 or 316 Chậu rửa công nghiệp
Stainless Steel

A durable material, stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion and rust. It is often used in construction, manufacturing and automotive industries. For example, it is the preferred metal for car components like air bags, composite bumpers and fuel lines that are compatible with alternate fuels. It is also popular for kitchen-grade utensils and cookware.

Stainless steel is an iron-containing alloy that has been modified by the addition of other elements. This includes chromium, which enhances its resistance to rusting and staining. The chromium content ranges from 12 to 20 percent. Some types of stainless steel also contain other metals such as nickel and molybdenum to achieve different properties.

The microstructure of the stainless steel determines its strength, durability and other properties. Austenitic, ferritic and martensitic are the main microstructures. Each has a unique set of benefits, such as formability, weldability and corrosion resistance. For instance, austenitic grades with low sulfur content are good for corrosive environments. Ferritic grades have good formability and weldability. Martensitic grades are strong but have low formability and weldability.

In order to ensure high quality, stainless steel must be properly processed. In addition to the basic forming and cutting, it must be annealed and cold worked in order to relieve internal stresses. In some cases, it may also be hardened by heat treatment. This process increases its tensile strength and toughness, but the hardening must be done carefully because overheating can cause distortion.

Stainless steel sinks are commonly used in restaurants and other foodservice establishments to meet sanitation codes. They are made of durable materials that can withstand heavy usage and regular cleaning. Typically, these sinks have additional features, such as compartments for soaking pots and pans or thawing and preparing foods. They are available in a variety of styles and sizes to suit any setting.
Cast Iron

Cast iron sinks are durable and can stand up to the rigors of daily use. They are also available in a variety of styles and colors to fit any decor. In addition, they can be surface mounted or undermounted. Choosing which type of installation is best will depend on the sink’s design and your countertop material. For example, a farmhouse sink will likely not be able to be surface mounted because it has an apron that extends over the front of the counter. A farmhouse sink also requires a stronger support structure than a stainless steel sink to accommodate the weight of the apron.

Aside from its beauty, a cast iron sink can add a classic touch to your kitchen. Its non-porous finish resists stains and makes for easy cleaning. However, if you do happen to drop a heavy pot on the sink, it is possible that the porcelain enamel could chip. If this happens, it’s important to have the sink professionally re-porcelainized, a process that involves sandblasting the old porcelain and applying new layers of enamel that are baked in a kiln.

If you’re looking for a cast iron sink for your home, consider checking out the options at a salvage yard or online. Some dealers specialize in restoring vintage sinks to their former glory. Look for one that has not been repainted with a high-heat epoxy coating. Unless you’re comfortable with working in the rough, it may be more economical to purchase a brand-new sink from a manufacturer. Many manufacturers produce these sinks from repurposed natural resources and are more environmentally friendly than other types of sinks. These newer models are also highly rated in our Sinks test program for impact resistance and scratch-resistance.
Glass

Commercial sinks are a key component of any kitchen. Whether for washing hands, food or utensils, these restaurant supplies must be sanitary to ensure the safety of staff and customers. That’s why government agencies and health departments enforce stringent codes regarding commercial kitchen equipment, including restaurant sinks. Complying with these guidelines can prevent fines and sanctions.

Choosing the right type of industrial sink can help you stay code-compliant. Compartment sinks, for example, allow you to divide up the washing, rinsing and sanitizing process into different basins so that each task is completed properly. These types of restaurant sinks are available in one, two and three-compartment styles and are ideal for commercial kitchens like delis, bakeries, cafes or concession stands. They also work well in spaces where a large sink is not feasible, such as in a bar environment.

Other types of commercial restaurant sinks include mop sinks, which are ideal for washing mops and other floor cleaning tools. Mop sinks come in wall-mounted and freestanding models and can be equipped with front shelving for convenient storage. They can also feature a deep well for dumping wastewater and some models have faucet mount eyewash stations, which convert regular faucets into decontamination units that flush water into employees’ eyes in case of accidental splashes.

If you’re looking for an eye-catching addition to your establishment, consider a glass industrial sink. Made from beautiful, durable tempered glass, these sinks are easy to clean and can be crafted in an array of colors, as well as clear and frosted designs. They also resist stains and scratches better than standard glass. This type of sink may require a mounting ring to ensure that the bowl sits in a stable manner on your countertop.
Plastic

Often made from materials that prevent corrosion, plastic sinks are durable and sturdy enough to handle the demands of busy commercial environments. They also come in a range of styles to suit your establishment. Choose from compartment styles that allow you to divide washing, rinsing, and sanitizing dishes in dishwashing stations. Larger sinks with drainboards are great for prepping food, thawing produce, or soaking pots and pans. Laundry tub sinks provide additional storage space for high-capacity cleaning needs in mudrooms, laundry rooms, service closets, or washrooms. PCI Auctions offers a wide selection of quality commercial sinks that are designed to help your staff work efficiently and effectively.
Soapstone

Soapstone sinks are often a favorite choice for those who want to bring an element of natural beauty into their kitchen. Unlike other materials, soapstone is unaffected by heat, acids and alkalis, making it a perfect material for sinks and counters in the kitchen. Its sleek wax-like luster looks great and can stand up to years of use. This beautiful natural stone is available in a variety of unique color and texture options, which can be combined to create a truly custom design.

Soapstone can be carved into sinks of any size and shape. It’s a soft and durable stone, which makes it easy to carve into sinks with rounded corners and unique curves. The softness of soapstone also makes it easy to handle, which allows for a custom-designed sink that fits your space perfectly. Soapstone sinks come in a wide range of sizes and are perfect for a country farmhouse or an urban contemporary.

Although many homeowners may be intimidated by the idea of a natural soapstone sink, they are surprisingly easy to care for and maintain. The stone is non-porous, so it does not absorb stains or harbor bacteria, and it naturally wears over time. Most homeowners simply use household cleaners to keep their soapstone sink looking its best.

One way to make your soapstone sink easier to clean is to treat it with mineral oil. This will darken the shade of the stone and help minimize nicks and scratches, which will show up more on this type of surface than other types of countertops. Traditionally, this stone was treated with mineral oil, but now most companies recommend using an engineered sealer that is food safe and provides much better results.
