MERIDIAN™ Semi-Professional is a true chef's tool.

While our SKU’s on sinks certainly increased by a wide margin in 2009, we shouldn’t forget that BLANCO carries exceptional faucet designs as well. Two faucets are worthy of a mention here: QUADRIS and MERIDIAN Semi-Professional. QUADRIS is BLANCO STEELART^®’s first faucet design featuring a real stainless steel finish. MERIDIAN Semi-Professional offers an iconic pro-look that’s in demand.

QUADRIS sleekly hides its pullout feature.

QUADRIS is BLANCO’s first STEELART faucet, made completely of stainless steel. Its strong cubic design makes a statement – while sleekly hiding its pullout spray feature. The QUADRIS pairs beautifully with the new FLOW sink from BLANCO STEELART.

The MERIDIAN Semi-Professional offers an iconic pro-look that’s always in style. European made, this faucet has a dual spray feature that’s both fashionable and functional, and features a stainless steel hose protector coil. Pair it with the PRECIS MULTI-LEVEL sink to create the ultimate professional workstation.

The real jewel of the kitchen, BLANCO faucets deliver stunning good looks along with European-made quality standards and excellence built right in.

BLANCO introduces the new PRECISION 16″ sink collection to its BLANCO STEELART® brand portfolio, with 28 new models that fit a wide range of applications. The ingenious new 16″ size fits standard 25″ countertops – offering a deep, spacious bowl design that protects the integrity of stone countertops – making it easy for fabricators to safely cut rare surfaces while leaving more room for faucets. A true designer resource, the BLANCO STEELART portfolio allows designers to explore something completely unique and inspiring for their clients.  The addition of the PRECISION 16″ collection is further proof that only BLANCO STEELART can offer such a wide range of innovative product solutions.

This side-by-side comparison clearly demonstrates what happens when you install the PRECISION 16" sink in a narrow countertop vs. a standard 18" sink. On left, PRECISION 16" provides ample room for the faucet vs. the 18" sink on the right.

Available with either an exacting zero radius or smooth 10mm radius corners, PRECISION 16″ offers a deep 10″ bowl design that’s flat on the bottom so crystal glassware can be set down safely without concern that they will tip over. The collection includes a wide variety of styles including single bowls, double bowls and sinks with stainless drainboards. The sinks also feature a deep 10″ bowl design that’s flat on the bottom so crystal glassware can be set down safely.

PRECISION 16" is a perfect fit for popular exotic stone countertops and leaves more room for faucet installation.
