Frequently Asked Questions - Rohl Stainless Steel Sinks
How are the Rohl stainless steel sinks manufactured?
The Rohl stainless steel sinks are completely hand-crafted in Italy by a family owned company specializing
in appliances which has expanded their range to include the water appliance. Using AISI304 stainless steel,
the sinks are laser-cut to the precise measurements of the design. The material is then bent to the specified
shape making sure to achieve a 9mm radius at the bottom edges for ease of cleaning. This feature is called
Tangent Edge, and is distinctive to the Rohl sinks. The vertical corners are fit to a zero radius, which gives
the sink its characteristic minimal look. Upon completion of the sink, the sound-deaden pads are added to all
sides and the bottom of the sink. This material is quite similar to those products used in the automotive
industry to sound-proof car hoods and motor cavities. Not only is noise reduced but the advantage of
conserving temperature is provided.
During the fabrication process, the attention to detail is not spared; special brushes were selected and the
polish time extended to give the sink surface a distinctive, smoother finish. This provides an elegant look
while offering the functional benefits of reducing cleaning time, resisting hard water build-up, and making it
easier to remove fingerprints.
The exclusive design of the ROHL stainless steel sinks complements modern and minimalistic kitchens
while outperforming in terms of functionality and hygiene.
In which respects are the Rohl stainless steel sinks different and/or better than others?
The Rohl sinks are:
- Manufactured from 16-gauge AISI304 stainless steel which is the best stainless steel for this type of
application.
- Hand-crafted in Italy, by a family-owned company with more than 30 years of tradition, experience and
know-how in stainless steel’s craftsmanship. Partnering with the top-end Italian kitchen manufacturers,
sinks and custom-made stainless steel worktops are supplied.
- Distinctive in the unique finish provided. This feature is both nice in appearance, to the touch and
easier to clean and maintain. This means that the sink will remain beautiful for a longer time.
- Fully sound-proofed. The sound-deadening material on 100% of the surface of each wall and the bottom
ensures a perfect sound-proofing, with a characteristic “dead” sound when knocked-upon.
- Designed using a Tangent Edge, with 9 mm radius on the bottom of the bowl and zero mm radius on the
vertical walls gives. These features offer a minimalistic look on the vertical walls while ensuring better
cleaning capabilities where it’s needed, on the bottom corners.
How should the stainless steel sinks be cleaned?
For everyday maintenance, wash the sink with water and soap or dish soap. Thoroughly rinse and dry with a
cloth. If the steel has a sheen from oil, wash with warm water and vinegar (10-15%), then rinse thoroughly
and dry.
For heavy-duty cleaning, specific cleaning products for stainless steel, such as Steel Clean*, can be used. If
other brands are used, please make sure that the product is creamy and not powdery, and that the cream does
not contain solid particles that may scratch the material. Abrasive products are not recommended.
Remember that all cleaning materials should be used in moderation.
