Overlay metallic kitchen sinks are distinguished by their design for installation directly onto a kitchen cabinet without the need for a countertop. The Valeso brand catalog features overlay kitchen sinks suitable for standard kitchen cabinets with widths of 40, 50, 60, or 80 cm. Key differences include their sizes, the thickness of the stainless steel used and its surface texture, as well as the position of the bowl relative to the dish platform in the respective sinks. All overlay kitchen sinks manufactured by Valeso share the following characteristics:
- High-quality technical SUS 201 stainless steel with a thickness of 0.7 or 0.4 mm is used.
- All overlay kitchen sinks made of 0.7 mm steel feature a 110 mm drain hole and come equipped with a complete set of fittings (drain with valve, siphon, overflow protection system, corrugated pipe for water drainage to the sewer, etc.).
- To minimize noise during operation, all sinks are fitted with an anti-vibration pad on the outer side of the bowl’s base.
- Country of manufacture – China for 0.7 mm sinks and Ukraine for 0.4 mm sinks.
Each overlay kitchen sink is made of stainless steel with three types of surface finishes: satin, decor, and polished. When choosing one of these options, consider not only the aesthetic aspect but also practicality in use. For instance, overlay stainless steel kitchen sinks with a satin finish have a uniform matte surface and offer an optimal balance of practicality and ease of maintenance. In contrast, sinks with a polished surface are the easiest to clean, though their mirror-like finish may show signs of wear over time, such as scratches and other minor damages. Overlay metallic sinks with a decor (micro-decor) surface are harder to clean but can maintain their appearance for the longest time.
