Comparison Fabiano BR 57x45 8213.401.1011 570x450 vs Fabiano Ovale 57x45 570x450

The thickness of the material used for washing.

More "thick" models, on the one hand, provide strength and reliability, on the other hand, they differ significantly in weight and cost of the product. And accordingly, for each material, its own standards in thickness are applied.

So for steel, the values start from 0.6 mm, and in the most "heavy" models, this indicator reaches a thickness of 1.5 mm. The most common value (golden mean) is a thickness of 0.8 mm, there are also thicknesses of 1 mm and kitchen sinks of 1.2 mm

Type of washing surface made of stainless steel (cf. «Body material»).

— Glossy. Brilliant, mirror surface, distinguished by attractive appearance. On the other hand, on such a surface quickly appear contamination and mechanical damage (traces from dried water, fingerprints, scratches, etc.), so to preserve the appearance it needs to be cleaned regularly, or even polished.

— Matte. The matte surface does not look as bright as glossy - it is fainter, without pronounced reflections. On the other hand, such surfaces are less susceptible to contamination and damage: fingerprints, traces of dried water, scratches and scuffs on such surfaces are not as visible as on gloss.

— Textured. Surface having a relief pattern with a depth of a fraction of a millimeter. This material is most convenient and practical from the point of view of maintenance, it perfectly masks contamination and is well resistant to scratches. The main drawback of textured surfaces is higher cost than matt and glossy. In addition, contamination and bacteria can accumulate in grooves, so clean such sinks should be with special care.
