ecological green sinks

Ecological sinks, green sinks: what are they?

More and more frequently, in the kitchen furniture sector, one hears about green' or 'sustainable' trend"as one of the strongest trends of the moment.

The growing sensitivity of people towards the environment and the desire to inhabit spaces that are compatible with the health of the environment and that of its inhabitants has led the industry to design and produce furniture that is compatible with this need: sustainability has become a decisive director in the choice of materials and mood.

In a previous article, Increasingly green kitchens in 2023we illustrated how the furniture sector aims to new materials such as porcelain, glass and PET. Materials that are able to guarantee a major aesthetic impact, ease of cleaning and durability.

But sustainability in the kitchen does not stop at the furniture and also concerns some of the accessories in the kitchen furniture, such as sinks.

You may have heard of ecological sinks or green sinks, but what are they really?
