Technical Specifications

Installation & Care

This basin is designed for countertop installation, so ensure the supporting vanity/top is level, sealed and appropriate for mounting a vessel basin. Because the Barcelona 48 has no pre-drilled tap holes, you’ll need to select a compatible wall-mounted or deck-mounted mixer and ensure there’s clearance for the basin height.

Care instructions: Use non-abrasive, pH-neutral cleaning agents; avoid strong acids, bleach or abrasive scourers to preserve surface finish and ensure long life of the composite material.
