Franke Maris Fragranite sinks are designed to bring order to the chaos of your kitchen so that you can easily cook and clean. The integrated ledge system enhances your workspace by providing a multi-level surface that allows you to work directly over the sink, creating separate areas for food preparation. The smooth finely textured surface naturally hinders bacteria growth without the need for additives. The rear drain maximizes the usable surface of the bowl and creates extra cabinet space beneath the sink. Maris Fragranite sinks are scratch-resistant, fade-resistant, and impact resistant making them a perfect choice in many environments, especially in busy family homes.
