Granite Sinks: Features and Benefits
In order to fully understand the difference between Granite and other synthetic kitchen sink materials, we have outlined Granite’s performance in five fundamental tests.

	Impact Resistant Plates, cups, knives and pots if dropped may cause irreparable damage to some sink’s surfaces. Our impact resistance test simulates the everyday impact caused by typical household utensils. Carron Phoenix Granite is supreme in withstanding all typical household impacts.
	Thermal Shock Resistant Thermal shock in a kitchen environment is the sudden change in temperature typically caused by emptying boiling water into a sink. Some composite materials may fracture due to these problems but extensive testing at Carron Phoenix has proved that Granite out performs all other materials by a long way. In our tests, Granite exceeds a massive 10,000 cycles of hot and cold water which the average kitchen sink would not experience in 50 years!
	Heat Resistant Resistance to high temperatures is essential for a sink’s working surface. Statistically, most oven cooking is carried out at around 220 degrees centigrade. Carron Phoenix Granite, however, can withstand much higher temperatures with no damage whatsoever – in fact it is impervious to temperatures of up to 280 degrees!
	Scratch Resistant The fundamental yet conclusive scratch test for Carron Phoenix Granite employed the abrasive teeth of a simple household fork. The resultant marks caused by the repeated scoring of the fork across the surface of the sink, are not scratches, but metal deposits from the fork itself! These metal deposits on the surface have been quickly and easily removed with an abrasive cleaner pad and clean water. No other material is capable of withstanding this aggressive test without serious damage.
	Stain Resistant Carron Phoenix Granite is capable of withstanding attack from particularly harsh and aggressive household chemicals and foodstuffs, all of which have no effect on the granite surface in normal use. No other composite material can match the resistance of granite.
	80% Quartz Carron Phoenix Granite is made up of 80% coloured quartz crystals bonded together in a matrix with 20% acrylic resin. During the manufacturing process, the quartz crystals are forced to the surface of the sink making the finished sink as hard as rock. The “Granite” is unmatched in its technical performance and is at the forefront of materials development.
	Lifetime Warranty All Carron Phoenix Granite Sinks feature a Manufacturers Lifetime Warranty.
