For those unfamiliar with the product, granite composite kitchen sinks are made using small pieces of granite held together with a manmade material. With this dual material process, manufacturers can take advantage of the durable properties of granite without being restricted by the limitations of dealing with solid slabs of stone.

Easily Formable Composites

Unlike the stone slabs, composites can be poured and formed into many desired shapes. Sinks made from granite composite can be made into many different shapes and sizes. They can be made into single, dual or triple sinks; they can be made for undermounting or traditional above counter mounts; they can come with optional knock out holes for additional hardware such as lotion/soap dispensers or spray nozzles.

The concentration of granite particles is usually higher near the surface of the sink. The higher concentration of stone at the surface means greater resistance to scratches and increased heat resistance. Resistance to staining is also higher than some other man made materials available.

Where to Find Granite Comp Sinks

Many reputable and established companies are offering composite sinks such as Moen, Blanco, Kindred and Swanstone to name a few.

Moen offers MoenStone with granite. You can choose from black, ivory or glacier white as colors for their sinks. Because the color goes all the way through the sink, there is less chance of fading or discoloration. Find MoenStone kitchen sinks at Faucet.com and Faucetdirect.com/moenstore.

Blanco composite kitchen sinks are offered at Homedepot.com in several colors.

Swanstone sinks can be found at Nextag.com.
