SENFON is the overseas-facing B2B supply and export contact for commercial stainless steel sinks, stainless steel sink tables and custom commercial pot sinks. Importers, distributors, commercial kitchen contractors and project buyers can submit dimensions, drawings or equipment schedules for specification review, packing coordination and shipment preparation.
Commercial Sink Types for Different Workflows
This collection covers commercial pot wash sinks, prep sinks, single-, double- and three-compartment sinks, drainboard sink tables, sink cabinets, sink tops and sink bowls. A pot wash sink normally uses a larger or deeper bowl for cookware; a prep sink supports ingredient washing; and a compartment sink separates washing, rinsing and sanitizing stages.
The correct commercial kitchen sink is selected by workflow, usable bowl capacity, drainboard direction, drainage layout and installation space—not by overall size alone.
- Recessed-top commercial sink tables with undershelves for contained washing areas
- Commercial sink tables with round tube legs for practical open-base layouts
- Custom stainless steel sink cabinets for enclosed lower storage
- Custom stainless steel sink tops for local fabrication and project installation
Deep-Drawn vs Custom Welded Sink Bowls
A deep-drawn stainless steel sink bowl uses a one-piece formed construction that suits standardized dimensions and repeat orders. A custom welded stainless steel sink bowl provides greater flexibility for deeper bowls, unusual dimensions and project-specific layouts.
Before selecting the bowl construction, confirm length, width, depth, corner radius, drain position, required quantity and how the bowl will be installed into the finished sink top.
SUS201, SUS304, SUS430 and SUS316 Material Options
Material grade should match the operating environment and the buyer’s approved specification. SUS304 is commonly selected for wet commercial kitchens and frequent washing. SUS316 can be considered for more demanding chloride, saline or chemical exposure. SUS201 can suit selected cost-sensitive applications, while SUS430 may be specified for suitable environments where its corrosion-performance limits are understood.
Availability does not mean every grade is equally suitable for every sink. The quotation and approved drawing should identify the grade by component, actual sheet thickness, surface finish and any matching welding requirements.
- Overall length, depth and finished working height
- Bowl quantity, dimensions, depth and corner radius
- Material grade by component and specified sheet thickness
- Left-, right- or double-drainboard configuration
- Backsplash, upstand or splashback dimensions
- Drain position, outlet size and faucet-hole requirements
- Round or square legs, undershelf or enclosed cabinet
- Welded or knock-down structure and export packing
Regional Sink Terms and Project Specifications
North American buyers often search for one-compartment sink, three-compartment sink, prep sink, pot sink, drainboard and backsplash. UK and European buyers may use catering sink, sink unit, pot wash sink, drainer and upstand. In Australia and New Zealand, stainless steel sink bench and splashback are common. Other B2B markets may use commercial kitchen sink, SS sink table or industrial sink.
These regional terms can describe related equipment. For an accurate quotation, translate the product name into confirmed dimensions, bowl layout, material grade, thickness, drainage and installation requirements.
Custom Commercial Pot Sink Sourcing
Buyers comparing a commercial pot sink manufacturer, commercial sink supplier or custom stainless steel fabricator should review more than the catalog image. Important checks include material traceability, actual thickness, bowl depth, top reinforcement, welding and polishing quality, drainage details, knock-down stability, packing and production against an approved drawing.
SENFON can coordinate standard and custom sink requirements with the production side, including specification confirmation, private-label packing, mixed-container planning and export documentation preparation.
Commercial Stainless Steel Sinks & Sink Tables FAQ
What is the difference between a pot sink, prep sink and compartment sink?
A pot sink is normally deeper for cookware; a prep sink supports ingredient washing; and a compartment sink separates washing, rinsing and sanitizing stages. Final dimensions should match the intended workflow.
Can commercial stainless steel sinks be made to custom dimensions?
Yes. Overall size, bowl dimensions, drainboard direction, backsplash, drain position, lower structure, material grade, thickness and packing can be coordinated from confirmed requirements or drawings.
Is a deep-drawn or welded sink bowl better?
Deep-drawn bowls suit standardized dimensions and repeat supply. Welded bowls offer more flexibility for non-standard sizes, deeper bowls and special project configurations.
Which stainless steel grade should be used for a commercial sink?
SUS304 is common for wet commercial kitchens, while SUS316 may suit more demanding chloride or chemical exposure. SUS201 and SUS430 may be considered when appropriate to the environment and approved specification. Confirm the grade by component before production.
What information is needed for a commercial sink quotation?
Confirm overall size, bowl quantity and dimensions, bowl depth, material grade, actual thickness, drainboard, backsplash, drain position, lower structure, quantity, packing and destination.
