Surface finishes
Alveus stainless steel kitchen sinks are available in three surface finishes, all of the high quality but with a different appearance.
The stainless steel surface of Alveus sinks can be smooth and semi-shiny (NAT). After brushing the surface in an only straight direction, we obtain brushed (BRS) stainless steel which appears in a bit mat dark and elegantly scratched surface. Brushing the sink surface in various direction gives it a silky glow with satin finish (SAT).
Special surface treatment of stainless steel
A thin vaporised metal substance known as ceramic nitride is deposited onto stainless steel surface, resulting in unique metal luster and increased scratch resistance. The surface-treated stainless steel is available in four precious metal colour shades - GOLD, COPPER, ANTHRACITE and BRONZE. Due to the nature of the surface treatment process, each sink ends up with a unique colour shade. The main characteristics and advantages of AISI 304 stainless steel are: • Easy cleaning which ensures a high level of hygiene • Resistance to high temperatures and rapid temperature changes (thermal shock) • Resistance to impacts • Resistance to chemical influences • 100 % recyclability
The stainless steel thickness ranges from 0.5 mm to 1.0 mm depending on the price range of the sink.

Granital
Granital composite material is a mixture of 75-80% granite particles bound together by a high-quality binder, which provides strength and flexibility to a kitchen sink as well as the resistance to temperature shocks.

Sinks in Granital material are available in carbon and concrete to which we added extra Granital Plus shades twilight and stell with metallic shimmering parts which give to the sink an elegant high-end look. B K L
