Stainless Steel Sinks

Stainless steel sinks are hardly ever seen by the public. They do not need to look attractive. Instead, they need to hold up under constant usage so they can reliably clean tools, supplies, and hands.

People use stainless steel sinks everywhere. They are found in hospitals, restaurants, hotels, commercial buildings, and factories.

Doctors wash their hands in these sinks. Some hospitals also do an initial, general cleaning of surgical tools before sterilizing them with other methods. Medical facilities always use stainless steel because it is nonporous. This keeps it from corroding, and it keeps bacteria from forming colonies on its surface.

Restaurants and schools also insist on utilizing the sanitary benefits of stainless steel. Service sinks in kitchens are needed to wash dishes and cookware. Schools wash trays here to get any germs that students may have breathed onto the surface. Staff can also wash their hands in these sinks once they have finished the dishes.

The chemicals that you have to use to clean things like trays, cooking utensils, bowls, and even surgical tools will not harm a stainless steel sink.

This is due in part to the simple fact that this is just a very tough kind of metal. More specifically, the nonporous nature that blocks water absorption also keeps corrosive chemicals from getting into the metal and making it rust.

Hotel and office buildings provide their cleaning crews with stainless steel sinks that allow them to maintain cleaning tools in top working condition.

Mops, rags, sponges, and toilet bowl brushes get soiled during use. You cannot remove all of the material that gets into these tools with water. You will need to use industrial grade cleaners, and again, you will need an industrial grade utility sink to handle the strength of the chemicals you are using.

Factories and warehouses often use these sinks as a safety tool.

Washing up is a very important part of safety. If you expose yourself to something that may be hazardous, you need to wash your arms as well as your hands. How are you going to do this in a little bitty sink in the restroom?

A deep basin sink will do your skin far more justice. You can find a number of special models here that have added features like towels, soap dispensers, foot pedals, risers, and side splashers.

You can also mount stainless steel sinks several different ways. One way is to mount it freestanding on a pedestal. Another is to get a standard wall mount. There is also an under shelf mount that places the sink conveniently right under your utility shelf. Finally, if you are cleaning mops, there is even a floor mounted mop sink for you.
