Renovating? Here are 6 designer sinks perfect for your laundry
A well renovated laundry can make more of a difference than you think. All of a sudden washing, drying and removing stains from your clothes becomes bearable – you might even find yourself enjoying yourself.
Besides your washer and dryer the most important part of any good laundry renovation is the humble sink. So to help get you inspired, we’ve rounded up six excellent laundry sinks that are perfect for any laundry.
1. Granite sinks from Schock
Schock invented the quartz composite granite sink more than 40 years ago and have been innovating since the birth of their company in 1924. Now almost 60% of quartz composite sinks are developed using the method that Schock developed.
Their granite sinks are perfect for the laundry. They come in a range of attractive, unique colours and are made in Germany from state-of-the-art nanogranite, which is strong, durable and very stain resistant. Their design is minimalist, perfect for modern laundry renos.
2. Chambord large double bowl
If your home is a renovated villa, bungalow or older townhouse and you’re going for a more classic renovation, Chambord’s Clotaire sinks may be perfect for you. They’re designed in France and manually finished by highly skilled artisans, with an appealing heritage look.
The large double bowl has plenty of space for soaking multiple garments and it’s made of fireclay, which is hygienic, durable and insensitive to high temperatures.
3. Chambord LOUIS range
If you don’t fancy a double sink a single-bowl Chambord may do the trick. The LOUIS range has a similar elegant, heritage style to the Clotaire but with ribbed detailing that adds an extra bit of personality. It’s generous in size and perfect for the demands of a busy household laundry.
4. The Hunter by Abbey
Sometimes a sink doesn’t need to be premium or design-led, sometimes all you need is a classic and functional sink. That’s exactly what the Hunter is. It’s compact but has a generous capacity and features a simple, curved stainless steel bowl design that will fit in well with almost any laundry. The best part? It costs under $250.
5. LT120 single bowl by Abey
Another simple laundry solution with a little extra style is the LT120 single bowl by Abey. It’s got a 45 litre capacity but it’s deceivingly compact so it’s perfect for tight spaces and smaller laundries. But its unique point of difference is that it can be installed undermount so it doesn’t have a lip and it comes in a beautiful black pearly colour that’s both modern and classy.
6. The double Leichardt by Abey
Got a big family? Then you’re going to need a big sink, like the Double Leichardt for all that washing. This beauty has huge capacity with two 45 litre bowls hewn from high grade 18/10 stainless steel that’s both durable and hygienic.
When you’re choosing fixtures and fittings for your renovation it’s always best to see them in person before you decide. Visit one of Abey’s Selection Galleries and you’ll see several of our laundry and bathroom sinks staged in person.
