EAIS Knee Operated Stainless Steel Hand Wash Basin

The EAIS knee-operated hand wash basin is a wall-mounted stainless steel unit designed specifically for commercial kitchen environments where hand hygiene and cross-contamination control are both a regulatory requirement and a daily operational concern. The knee-operated push panel allows staff to activate water flow without touching the tap, so hands remain clean between tasks and contamination is not transferred back to the controls.

In a working kitchen, that distinction matters. During busy service, staff are moving quickly between raw and ready food, between dirty prep and plated dishes. A conventional tap requires a soiled hand to operate it — the knee panel removes that step entirely and keeps the wash process genuinely hygienic. The compact footprint makes it straightforward to position in prep areas, pass-throughs, and back-of-house sections where space is tight and a full sink would be neither practical nor appropriate.

• Knee-operated panel activates water flow without hand contact
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and cleans down easily
• Mixer tap provides temperature control at the point of use
• Compact wall-mounted design suits limited wall space in busy kitchens
• Suitable for dedicated hand wash compliance points under food hygiene regulations

Installation requires a standard hot and cold water supply and suitable wall fixings. It is worth confirming wall construction before ordering, particularly in older or timber-framed buildings. An optional upstand is available where protection to the wall surface behind the basin is needed. This unit is a dedicated hand wash point — it is not intended for washing up or food preparation tasks.

This basin is well suited to restaurants, cafés, takeaways, food production units, and any site where a dedicated, compliant hand wash point is required. For larger kitchens planning multiple wash points across different zones, it is worth thinking through positioning relative to food handling areas and compliance requirements before committing to a layout.

If you have questions about installation suitability or how this fits into your kitchen's hygiene setup, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
