Designline Double Bowl Sink Unit with Drainer

The Designline double bowl sink unit is a freestanding commercial sink station built for everyday heavy use in professional kitchens. Constructed from 304 grade stainless steel throughout the worktop and bowls, and supported on a 30mm square box section frame, it is designed to withstand the demands of busy kitchen environments over many years of service. The unit is available in a wide range of standard lengths and depths, making it practical to specify across different kitchen layouts and workspace requirements.

In a working kitchen, this type of sink unit is commonly used for washing up, food preparation rinsing, and general pot washing duties. The double bowl configuration allows operators to separate tasks — for example, washing in one bowl and rinsing in the other — which helps maintain workflow during busy service periods. The ribbed drainer sections on either side allow wet equipment to drain away from the main work surface, reducing pooling and the risk of slips around the station.

From a practical standpoint, several features help this unit earn its place in a commercial kitchen:

• Drip mould edging to the worktop prevents water tracking onto the floor
• A 50mm wall upstand to the rear protects the wall surface behind the unit
• A welded under-shelf provides usable storage below the worktop
• Flanged levelling feet allow the unit to be fixed to the floor and adjusted for level on uneven surfaces
• Legs are inset 100mm to the rear to allow service pipework to run behind the unit cleanly

Installation is straightforward, but there are a few points worth considering before ordering. The unit requires a hot and cold water supply and appropriate waste drainage; waste traps and pipework are not supplied with the unit, so these will need to be sourced and fitted on site. Taps are also not included, allowing you to select fittings appropriate to your water pressure and plumbing configuration. Given the range of available lengths and depths, it is worth confirming the correct size against your available wall run before ordering, particularly where the unit will sit between existing fixtures.

This sink unit is well suited to cafés, school kitchens, pub kitchens, care home facilities, and similar operations where a reliable, mid-weight sink station is required. For very high-volume sites with particularly demanding throughput — such as large production kitchens or hospital catering — it is worth discussing whether a heavier-specification unit would be more appropriate for the workload.
