ACCESSORIES: Apron Sink

BLANCO AMERICA, Lumberton, N.J., introduces IKON™, the first ever SILGRANIT® apron-front sink. The innovative design features a sophisticated apron front design with a traditional wide radius and robust 1.5” rim.

IKON™ is available in three colors — Anthracite, White and Café Brown – in SILGRANIT, a material with rock-hard granite durability, heat resistance up to 536° F, and resistance to scratches, stains and all household acids and alkali solutions.

BLANCO also offers a unique custom-fit Floating Grid accessory for use with the IKON, which rests along the walls of the sink and can be used as an additional workstation for prepping and cleaning, or as a trivet on the countertop. Since the grid is not needed to protect the sink surface, it floats gently above the sink bottom (above debris and water) to be used as a multi-tasking work area that’s clean and easy to reach.

“Our goal with the creation of the BLANCO IKON was to once again raise the bar for innovation in kitchen-sink fixtures,” stated Tim Maicher, marketing director for BLANCO. “After years of research, our engineers were able to deliver what was thought a technical impossibility – a true granite apron front kitchen sink.”
