Often copied, never matched. Every year, more and more customers worldwide put their trust in the original – SILGRANIT from BLANCO. SILGRANIT is a patented, high-end granite composite material manufactured by BLANCO, widely considered the industry standard for coloured kitchen sinks. It is composed of up to 80% natural quartz sand—the strongest component of granite—bound together by high-quality acrylic resins and colour pigments. This is apparent not only to the eye, but also to the touch. Our SILGRANIT sinks have a lovely stone-like feel and are extremely easy to clean. What’s more, the material is highly resistant. You want to have free rein in your kitchen, whether you're cooking with tomatoes, strawberries, lemon juice or beetroot. Your sink is impervious to whatever ends up in it, and simply will not allow any discolouration. Only if limescale builds up on the surface of your sink you’ll need to remove it to avoid dirt accumulation. This makes your SILGRANIT sink an optimal synthesis of functionality and visual appeal.
Sink looks great and I’m really happy with the visual but to be honest I wouldn’t have brought it if I knew how easily it marked and stained. Tea, tomato based sauces and curry all leave marks which you can’t just wipe away, so you have to give it a good scrub every time you use it - which is a shame. This probably isn’t true of the other colours though so maybe it’s just the white one. Hannah. Chobham, GB. Tue Apr 14 2020
