LOTUS MARINE 70 Litre Stainless Steel Sink with Lever Tap

A single-bowl worktop sink designed for continuous use in commercial kitchens, where hot water and detergents remove food residues, grease and bacteria from crockery, utensils and preparation tools. The bowl holds water while the lever tap mixes mains hot and cold supplies to the temperature the operator selects, allowing hands-free filling and rinsing without cross-contamination between tasks.

The bowl is deep enough to submerge large pots and sheet pans, while the surrounding work surface gives space for stacking washed items or holding cleaning chemicals. Adjustable legs level the unit on uneven floors, and a locking mechanism prevents movement once positioned, keeping the sink stable during vigorous scrubbing and draining.

Construction is 1 mm gauge 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel throughout, chosen for resistance to corrosion from water, salt and acids found in food. The surface is satin-finished with Scotch-Brite, which scatters light to hide minor scratches and provides a non-slip grip when wet. Edges are rounded and polished to eliminate sharp corners where dirt can collect, and chrome-plated components on the tap resist tarnishing under constant moisture.

The single lever mixer tap controls both flow rate and temperature with one hand, reducing the risk of scalding and allowing the operator to keep the other hand free for holding items under the stream. A swivel spout directs water into the bowl or onto the work surface as needed.

Overall dimensions of 400 mm front to back, 705 mm side to side and 280 mm high create a compact footprint that fits standard worktop depths while providing a 70-litre bowl capacity. The 22 kg weight allows two people to lift and position the unit without mechanical assistance, yet is sufficient to prevent accidental shifting during daily use.

Cleaning follows from the materials and construction: stainless steel is wiped with a damp cloth and mild detergent, avoiding abrasives that could damage the satin finish. The bowl drains completely when tilted, leaving no standing water to harbour bacteria. Chrome parts are dried after use to prevent water spots, and the lever mechanism is periodically lubricated to maintain smooth operation.
