Schock invented granite sinks and has been the world’s leading
manufacturer of these products for 30 years. Customers in
more than 70 countries value the quality and design of the sinks
manufactured exclusively at the company’s headquarters in the
Bavarian Forest (Germany). More than a million sinks are manu-
factured with the Schock method across the globe each year.
The possibilities offered by innovative nanotechnology enabled
Schock to achieve a quantum leap over conventional sinks in
terms of quality, ease of care and protection against bacteria
with the development of the premium Cristadur material in 2005.

OUR MATERIAL


CRISTADUR® – HYGIENE WITH AN EXQUISITE SHEEN

CRISTADUR® is Schock’s premium material, alongside CRISTA-             CRISTADUR® benefits at a glance
STONE®. The material is specially developed for the demands of                                                                                           Granite

sinks without a trace – red wine, coffee and heavy pans leave          -Antibacterial qualities from natural silver ions (exclusive to Schock)
no marks whatsoever. The material is particularly easy to clean,       -Extremely easy to clean
safe for use with food and finished with Schock Antibac. This          -Food-safe
hygiene protection system, exclusive to Schock, uses natural           -Light-fast
silver ions to inhibit 95% of bacterial growth, which makes doing      -Stain-resistant
kitchen chores a more hygienic and carefree experience. Schock         -Shock-proof thanks to the very high quartz content
Antibac is the first and so far the only antibacterial hygiene pro-    -Installation: flush mount, undermount, topmount
tection system for the kitchen sink.

Furthermore, CRISTADUR® has an extremely fine nanostructure,
allowing for unprecedented ease of care and featuring the Nano-                         Made in Germany
clean effect (lotus effect). Dirt that could be a breeding ground
for bacteria finds it impossible to stick to the material’s surface.
It simply runs off.

An added benefit of CRISTADUR® is its silky-smooth finish, giving
the material a delicate shimmer and a soft feel with maximum re-
sistance to dirt and scratches.

Around 85% of the material used in Schock’s CRISTADUR® sinks
is quartz, the hardest constituent of granite, which is why they are
also known as granite sinks.

The granite is coupled with a high-grade acrylic binder. It is this
combination of acrylic and granite that gives the sinks their
durability.

The granite sinks developed and patented by Schock have
achieved a highly acclaimed reputation as premium products
over the past twenty years, with more than a million of the
sinks sold across the globe each year.

SCHOCK HYGIENE CONCEPT
                                   Making life more hygienic and carefree.




         Antibac
         Sinks used to prepare food or wash dishes and pans provide
         a breeding ground for bacteria. Schock Antibac is the first
         and so far the only antibacterial hygiene protection system
         for the kitchen sink. The integrated protection mechanism
         uses natural silver ions to reduce bacterial growth by 95%.




         Nanoclean effect
         The premium CRISTADUR® material additionally offers the
         Nanoclean effect. The material’s nanostructure is so fine that
         it is virtually impossible for bacteria and dirt to stick to the
         surface. It simply runs off.

An added benefit of CRISTADUR® is its silky-smooth finish, giving the material a delicate shimmer and a soft feel with maximum re- sistance to dirt and scratches. Around 85% of the material used in Schock’s CRISTADUR® sinks is quartz, the hardest constituent of granite, which is why they are also known as granite sinks. The granite is coupled with a high-grade acrylic binder. It is this combination of acrylic and granite that gives the sinks their durability. The granite sinks developed and patented by Schock have achieved a highly acclaimed reputation as premium products over the past twenty years, with more than a million of the sinks sold across the globe each year. 6 7
