Bathroom Sink

Choosing the right bathroom sink type is the first step in any bathroom design project. Each basin style offers different advantages in terms of installation, space efficiency and aesthetics. Below is a comprehensive overview of the bathroom sink types we manufacture.

Counter Top Basin (Vessel Sink)
A counter top basin sits on top of the vanity countertop, making it a striking focal point in modern bathroom design. Available in round, square, oval and rectangular shapes with high gloss or matte finish. These basin styles work best when paired with wall-mounted or tall vessel faucets. Ideal for master bathrooms, boutique hotels and designer residential projects where the bathroom sink doubles as a decorative element.

Under Counter Basin (Undermount Sink)
An under counter basin is mounted beneath the countertop, creating a seamless transition from counter to sink. Water and debris sweep directly into the basin without catching on a rim, making undermount bathroom sinks the easiest to clean. Popular in luxury residential bathrooms, hotel guest bathrooms, and high-end commercial restrooms. Best paired with solid surface, quartz or stone countertops.

Wall Hung Basin (Wall Mounted Sink)
Wall hung basins are fixed directly to the bathroom wall without requiring a vanity cabinet. This basin type saves valuable floor space and allows flexible mounting height — making them ideal for small bathrooms, powder rooms, accessible bathrooms and commercial restrooms. The exposed plumbing can be concealed with a decorative bottle trap or chrome cover for a clean aesthetic.

Pedestal Basin (Floor Standing Sink)
A pedestal basin features a ceramic column that supports the basin and conceals plumbing connections. This classic bathroom sink style is well-suited to traditional, transitional and heritage-style bathrooms. The pedestal provides structural support while hiding pipework, offering a clean, timeless look that works in both residential and commercial settings.

Semi-Recessed Basin (Half Inset Sink)
A semi-recessed basin sits partially within the vanity cabinet, with the front portion projecting beyond the cabinet edge. This basin design saves countertop space while maintaining accessible depth. Often used in compact bathrooms, cloakrooms, and commercial washrooms where space efficiency is a priority.

Console Sink (Leg Basin)
A console sink combines a basin bowl with metal or ceramic legs, offering an open, furniture-style look. The space beneath the console basin remains open, making the bathroom feel more spacious. Popular in vintage-inspired bathrooms, boutique hotels, and high-end residential interiors seeking a distinctive aesthetic.

Selecting the ideal bathroom sink for your project involves balancing functionality, aesthetics, space constraints and budget. Whether you are sourcing wash basins for a hotel chain, residential development or commercial building, the following decision factors will help you make an informed choice.

Step 1: Determine Installation Type
Start by identifying how the bathroom sink will be installed. Counter top vessel basins create a designer statement. Under counter basins offer seamless cleaning. Wall hung basins save floor space. Pedestal basins provide a classic look. Semi-recessed basins work in compact settings. Match the installation type to both the bathroom layout and the intended user experience.

Step 2: Choose the Right Bathroom Sink Material
Ceramic (vitreous china) is the most popular bathroom sink material due to its durability, stain resistance and affordability. Stainless steel offers impact resistance for commercial use. Sintered stone provides a premium matte finish. Natural stone and marble deliver luxury aesthetics. See our material comparison guide below for a detailed breakdown.

Step 3: Select Basin Size and Dimensions
Bathroom sink dimensions should match the vanity cabinet size and the available wall space. Standard counter top basins range from 400–600mm in diameter. Under counter basins typically measure 450–550mm wide. Wall hung basins span 400–650mm wide. Always leave at least 100mm clearance from the basin edge to the nearest wall or obstacle.

Step 4: Consider Faucet Compatibility
Your basin choice determines faucet requirements. Counter top vessel basins need tall vessel faucets or wall-mounted taps. Under counter basins work with deck-mounted faucets installed on the countertop. Wall hung basins pair with wall-mounted faucets. Ensure the basin has the correct number of tap holes (single hole, 3-hole, or no hole) before ordering.

Step 5: Evaluate Color and Finish Options
Ceramic bathroom sinks are available in white, matt white and matt black as standard colors. We offer custom colors using our own color card — please confirm feasibility with our sales team before ordering. The finish choice — high gloss or matte — affects both aesthetics and maintenance. High gloss finishes reflect light and make small bathrooms feel larger. Matte finishes hide water spots and fingerprints more effectively.

Step 6: Verify Quality Certifications
Always request bathroom sink certification documents. Our basins are manufactured under ISO9001 and hold CE, CUPC, Watermark and SASO certifications. We also comply with ISO14001 environmental management and ISO45001 occupational health and safety standards. Request test reports for water absorption (≤0.5%), glaze thickness (min 0.6mm) and edge warpage tolerance (max 1mm) to verify quality.

Our Recommendation: For the vast majority of bathroom projects — hotels, apartment developments, commercial buildings — ceramic bathroom sinks offer the best balance of durability, hygiene, aesthetics and cost-effectiveness. Vitreous china is non-porous, resistant to scratches and chemicals, and maintains its glossy appearance for decades with minimal maintenance.

Superior Glaze Finish & Hygiene
Our ceramic bathroom sinks feature a non-porous high-gloss glaze fired at 1280℃. The ultra-smooth surface prevents bacteria, mold and dirt from adhering, making ceramic wash basins the most hygienic choice for bathrooms. A simple wipe with a damp cloth restores the basin to its original shine — no harsh chemicals required.

Outstanding Durability & Stain Resistance
With water absorption below 0.5%, our vitreous china basins resist staining, cracking and odors even after years of heavy use. The minimum 10mm fired clayware thickness provides structural integrity and thermal shock resistance — hot water exposure will not damage a quality ceramic bathroom sink.

Wide Design Versatility
Ceramic bathroom sinks are available in an extensive range of shapes, sizes and colors. From minimalist round vessel basins to elegant oval undermount sinks, from classic white to on-trend matt black — ceramic adapts to any bathroom design language. Custom colors are available using our own color card — please confirm with our sales team for color matching feasibility.

Excellent Value & Long Service Life
Ceramic bathroom sinks offer the best price-to-performance ratio of any basin material. Unlike stone or metal, ceramic does not rust, corrode, or require periodic sealing. A well-maintained ceramic wash basin will look and perform like new for 20+ years. Combined with our 5-year quality guarantee, this makes ceramic the most cost-effective bathroom sink choice for wholesale buyers and project procurement.

Precision Manufacturing & Consistent Quality
Our ceramic bathroom sinks are produced with precise dimensional control. Edge warpage tolerance is kept within 1mm. Drain hole diameter is calibrated to 46mm (+2.0/-3.0mm) for universal plumbing compatibility. Every basin is 100% inspected before packing. This consistency is essential for hotel chain projects where identical quality across hundreds of bathrooms is mandatory.

Proper bathroom sink installation is critical for both functionality and aesthetics. Different basin types require different mounting methods and plumbing configurations. Below we explain the installation requirements for each bathroom sink type to help you plan your project.

Counter Top Basin Installation
The basin sits directly on the vanity countertop with the drain pipe passing through a hole in the counter. The basin is typically secured with silicone sealant rather than mechanical fasteners. Requires a vessel faucet (taller than standard) or a wall-mounted faucet positioned above the basin rim. The countertop must be strong enough to support the basin weight when filled with water. Standard counter height for vessel basins is 800-850mm from floor.

Under Counter Basin Installation
The basin is mounted from underneath the countertop using mounting brackets and silicone adhesive. The countertop must have a precisely cut opening matching the basin's inner rim profile. Professional installation is recommended to ensure a watertight seal between the basin rim and the countertop underside. This basin style pairs with deck-mounted faucets installed through the countertop surface.

Wall Hung Basin Installation
Wall mounted basins require a structurally sound wall capable of supporting the basin weight plus water load (typically 25-40kg total). Installation uses heavy-duty wall bolts or a concealed mounting frame. Plumbing connections must be positioned precisely behind the basin. For commercial installations, specify reinforced wall blocking during construction. Adjustable mounting height (typically 800-850mm) makes wall hung basins ideal for accessible bathroom design.

Pedestal Basin Installation
The pedestal column is positioned first, aligned with the floor waste outlet. The basin bowl is then mounted to the wall and rests on top of the pedestal. The pedestal primarily provides aesthetic concealment of plumbing — the wall mounting carries most of the weight. Ensure the floor is level before installation to prevent the pedestal from tilting.

Key dimension rules for project planning:

• Always leave minimum 100mm clearance from basin edge to wall or adjacent fixture

• Standard bathroom sink mounting height: 800-850mm from finished floor to basin rim

• Counter top basin faucet height: 150-250mm above basin rim (vessel faucet)

• Under counter basin: countertop overhang should be 5-10mm inside the bowl edge for a clean look

• For accessible bathrooms: mounting height 700-750mm with knee clearance below

Ceramic bathroom sinks are the easiest type of wash basin to maintain, but following best practices will extend their pristine appearance for decades. Here is a complete care and maintenance guide for ceramic bathroom sinks in residential, hotel and commercial settings.

Daily Cleaning Routine
Wipe the basin surface with a soft damp cloth or sponge after each use to remove water spots and soap residue. For routine cleaning, use a mild liquid detergent or pH-neutral bathroom cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. Ceramic glaze repels most dirt — a 10-second daily wipe is usually sufficient.

What NOT to Use on Ceramic Bathroom Sinks
Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring powders, steel wool and stiff brushes — these can scratch the ceramic glaze surface over time. Do not use bleach-based or acidic cleaners (vinegar, lime scale removers) undiluted, as prolonged exposure may dull the high-gloss finish. Avoid pouring boiling water directly into a cold ceramic basin — sudden temperature changes can cause thermal shock cracking.

Removing Stubborn Stains
For hard water spots or mineral deposits, apply a paste of baking soda and water to the affected area. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush and rinse. For rust stains from metal objects, use a non-abrasive ceramic cleaner. Never use metal scrapers or razor blades on the glaze.

Long-Term Maintenance Tips
Check the drain assembly and sealant around under counter and counter top basins annually for signs of wear. Reapply silicone sealant if gaps appear between the basin and countertop to prevent water seepage. For wall hung basins, periodically check mounting bolts for tightness. With proper care, a quality ceramic bathroom sink will maintain its appearance and functionality for 20+ years — which is why we confidently offer a 5-year guarantee.
