SILGRANIT® Benefits
FEEL THE STRENGTH
BLANCO pioneered the concept of hard composite sinks in 1980, using some of the toughest materials available from Mother Nature. More than just a coated surface, solid material throughout the entire sink ensures consistent color and durability year after year.
The proprietary formula for Silgranit® has been perfected in our own high-tech factories, utilizing precision chemical laboratories and computer controlled mixing machinery to ensure uniform quality.
BLANCO’s Silgranit® sink facility has been awarded the coveted ISO 9001 designation from the Geneva, Switzerland based International Standards Organization for “quality assurance in design, development, production, installation and service.”
SILGRANIT® sinks feature the touch and feel of natural stone. Unlike cast iron and soft composite materials, SILGRANIT® combines the best performing ingredients to produce kitchen sinks that are durable, stain resistant, easy-to-clean, and available in a collection of dynamic designs including our popular BLANCODIAMOND™ Series.
SILGRANIT® contains 80% natural granite, mixed with acrylic resin, which gives the sink its resilience and ability to be molded into striking designs. Compare Silgranit® to cast iron and soft composite sinks:
Heat resistant to 536°F.
- Resistant to extreme changes between hot and cold.
- Hard, durable surface is resistant to chipping.
- Unaffected by acids and alkalis typically used in the home.
- Moldable into an unusual variety of striking designs and functional features.
- Compare our innovative angles, large capacity, and extra deep bowls.
Environmentally friendly, with recyclable raw materials.
- Resilient surface is less likely to break dinnerware and fine crystal.
- Extremely hygienic. Does not absorb odors or bacteria.
- Non-porous design resists most household stains, including coffee, tea, mustard, beet juice, red wine, hair dyes.
- Regular cleaning of BLANCO Silgranit® sinks is easy with a scrub pad such as Scotch Brite and any non-abrasive cleaner, including our own BLANCOCLEAN. Stubborn stains, caused by prolonged contact, can be removed with a solution of 50% bleach, 50% water, or by using Bar Keepers Friend (directions included on bottle).
As tough and durable as they are good looking, all SILGRANIT® sinks are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. SILGRANIT® is the ideal solution for the most frequently used area in your kitchen.
