Rangemaster has expanded its fire-clay ceramic offering with Sandwood, a 600mm single-bowl Butler sink that combines the recognisable apron-front aesthetic with a built-in tap deck to make installation faster on site.
Measuring 630mm front-to-back, the sink is designed to sit directly against the rear wall, so laminate, timber, composite or stone worktops can be run neatly up to the sides without time-consuming cut outs and templating. A slimmer rim gives the Sandwood design a modern edge while protecting worktop edges from everyday splashes.
Jennifer Townsend, Product Marketing Manager at Rangemaster, explains: “Retailers, installers and developers have been looking for a statement Butler sink that does not demand extra fabrication time on site and is compatible with all worktop materials – especially wood and laminate. By moving the tap holes onto the ceramic and letting the sink sit proud of the worksurface, Sandwood delivers the traditional sit-on look that customers love but with none of the usual compromises.”
Manufactured from fire-clay ceramic and finished in a high-gloss glaze, Sandwood resists heat, stains and scratches and is easy to keep clean – an important selling point for busy households and contract developers alike. Supplied with waste kit and fixings, the new model fits a standard 600mm cabinet and carries Rangemaster’s 10-year warranty, giving merchants and designers full confidence in specification.
Available to UK retailers now, Sandwood complements recent launches such as the farmhouse-style Waverley tap.
