The sink and surrounding area is statistically the most frequently used part of
the kitchen, so the rigours a sink has to withstand as people go about their daily
chores are obviously especially great. But transportation to the customers is
also a challenge for the packaging owing to the weight of the sink.
By ingraining a special fibreglass product in the bottom of the sink, SCHOCK has
been able to increase the material’s impact resistance several times over, with
the organic fibres cross-linking the quartz casting compound even better and
affording the material greater elasticity.
The effect can be compared with the difference between concrete (tough) and
reinforced concrete (tough and flexible). Developed in-house by the materials
research team, the technology is patent pending.
