—PVD-coated stainless steel sinks are non-toxic and pose no health risks to humans. PVD is a process that uses physical methods under high vacuum to transform a metal target into atoms or molecules, which are then deposited onto the surface of a stainless steel sink to form a dense thin film.

Yes, but not easily. While the PVD coating does improve the surface hardness and wear resistance of the stainless steel sink, it still cannot completely prevent scratches. In other words: • It is not easily scratched under normal use • However, improper handling and strong friction can still cause scratches.

Yes, the standard procedure requires the undermount sink to be installed before the countertop. The undermount sink needs to be secured under the countertop first, and then the countertop is placed and installed.

If you pour vinegar directly into a stainless steel kitchen sink and don't rinse it for a long time, it may cause dark spots, dullness, or even micro-pitting corrosion on the surface.

Loose Drain Fitting This is the most common cause of leaks under stainless steel kitchen sinks. The sliding fitting (also known as a union) connects the sink outlet to the drain pipe. When the threads are not tightened or the rubber ring is misaligned, leaks will occur during drainage.

Common fixing methods for undermount sinks: ✔ Metal clips ✔ Support frame/wooden board ✔ Structural adhesive/silicone Therefore, when replacing an undermount sink, all operations are: Climb into the cabinet and move the sink from below, without touching the countertop.

Strong Adhesives are a Core Securement Method A key to securing an undermount sink is using professionally applied stone adhesive, structural adhesive, or epoxy adhesive. High-quality structural adhesives can withstand long-term tensile, sagging, and impact forces, ensuring the undermount sink's stability.

High-curve kitchen sink faucets have a higher spout position, typically rising 25-45 cm from the countertop. Low-curve kitchen sink faucets have a lower spout position, typically 15-25 cm high. They have a more compact and simpler appearance and are often used in small kitchens or areas with low wall cabinets.

When choosing an undermount sink, the sink material must be able to withstand the weight, tension, and long-term stress brought about by the suspended installation method. Stainless steel has a natural advantage in this regard, making stainless steel undermount sinks exceptionally stable during installation.

Countertop sinks, due to their raised edges, easily accumulate limescale, grease, and food residue. Undermount kitchen sinks, with their recessed design, allow dirt from the countertop to be directly swept into the sink with a cloth or scraper.
