FAQs:

What is a commercial grade sink?

A commercial grade sink is a type of stainless steel sink that is designed to stand up to the rigors of a busy kitchen. Commonly used in restaurants, hotels, and other commercial food service establishments, these sinks are constructed from high-grade stainless steel with either a brushed finish or an enameled coating for added durability and resistance to corrosion. Commercial grade sinks come equipped with various accessories, such as cutting boards and strainers, built-in trash cans, integrated hand sanitizer dispensers and single- or double-handle faucets.

What kind of sink is used in commercial kitchens?

In most commercial kitchens, the type of sink that is required is typically a three-compartment stainless steel sink. These sinks are designed to be used for washing, rinsing, and sanitizing different items such as dishes, utensils, pots, pans, and other kitchen tools. A three-compartment stainless steel sink is both durable and easy to clean, making it an ideal choice for any commercial kitchen setting.

How do I choose the right commercial sink?

When choosing a commercial sink, it is important to consider the type of food preparation that will be done in the kitchen. Additionally, you should also take into account the size and shape of the sink as well as its durability and installation requirements. In terms of design, there are various options available including drop-in sinks, undermount sinks, single bowl designs and double bowl designs. In order to make sure your chosen sink can stand up to heavy use over time and meet all relevant health codes, you should select one made from high quality stainless steel material with either a brushed finish or enameled coating for added protection against corrosion.

What grade of stainless is commercial sinks made out of?

Most commercial sinks are made from grade 304 stainless steel, which is the most common grade of stainless steel used for home and commercial applications. It provides good corrosion resistance, durability, and heat resistance. Grade 316 stainless steel is also increasingly being used in sinks due to its superior corrosion-resistance compared with grade 304.

What are the benefits of using a commercial grade sink?

The benefits of using a commercial grade sink include increased durability, ease of cleaning, and safety. Commercial grade sinks are built with thicker material than residential ones and are resistant to harsh chemicals like bleach. They also have more options for installation such as different types of drainage systems and can accommodate larger items that need to be washed during food preparation. Additionally, they have higher back edges which help contain splashes from outside the sink basin. Overall, commercial grade sinks provide a much more hygienic environment when used in restaurants or other food service establishments.

Are there any safety concerns when using a commercial sink?

Yes, there are potential safety concerns when using a commercial sink. Potential risks include contamination from chest-level handles on faucets, inadequate drainage due to improper installation or design of the sink bowl, and increased risk of slips and falls when standing on wet surfaces. It is important to choose a commercial sink that meets standards for safety and sanitation in order to ensure a safe working environment.
