How can scratches occur in a stainless steel sink?
Stainless steel is a hard-wearing material that makes your sink very stain resistant, among other things. When the material is new, it is more sensitive to scratches because of the protective coating applied by our manufacturer.
So although you may see scratches in your new stainless steel sink, they will also disappear over time as the material gets more used and takes on a more matte nuance. This means that your stainless steel sink will only get more beautiful with use!
