How is the basin protected from water and UV rays?

23 layers of protection allow for a great visual effect and full protection against water. Covering with all layers is the longest stage of the production process. The lacquers used fully protect against UV radiation and color change or fade of the washbasin. The preparations used also ensure that the coating does not turn yellow. Read about technology.

How are wood sinks and tubs designed to prevent warping associated with hot water use, which negatively affects the durability of the varnish?

Cross-glued layers of beech wood with a thickness of less than 1.5 mm allow for maximum resistance to deformation related to temperature changes during use. In addition, special varnishes have been selected and cured to be sufficiently flexible. This prevents cracking of the protective layers and ensures long-term use without problems.
