T&S Brass Hand Wash Sinks: Built for Durability, Compliance, and Ease of Use

Maintaining hygiene in commercial kitchens starts with a fundamental practice: handwashing. Washing hands thoroughly with soap and water for at least 20 seconds prevents the spread of germs and ensures food safety.

The CDC reports that proper handwashing can eliminate up to 99% of germs, making it one of the most effective defenses against foodborne illnesses. In a commercial kitchen setting, handwashing stations must not only support hygiene but also meet health regulations, enhance ease of use and complement the overall design of the space, big or small.

T&S Brass offers stainless-steel hand wash sink packages designed to provide long-lasting durability, regulatory compliance and exceptional quality, lending both functionality and style to any commercial kitchen.

Dependable hand wash solutions for busy kitchens

T&S offers two adaptable 17” x 15” hand wash sink package options designed to meet the needs of busy commercial environments. Each package is available with both sensor-activated and manual faucet options for added flexibility.

• Sink with backsplash and side splash shields – Designed for high-traffic areas, this model includes side splash shields to contain water, reduce mess and simplify cleanup.

• Sink with backsplash only – A compact and efficient choice, ideal for smaller spaces or locations where additional splash protection isn’t necessary.

Both configurations feature a durable 14″ x 10″ basin crafted from 20-gauge stainless steel, ensuring longevity and easy maintenance. Users can select from premium T&S manual or sensor-activated wall-mount faucets, including hydro-generator models for a fully touchless experience. Each package also includes a drain assembly and removable strainer basket, delivering the trusted performance that defines T&S products.

Backed by a one-year warranty, these hand wash sinks are built to withstand the rigorous demands of modern commercial kitchens.

Keeping commercial kitchens safe starts with properly training staff

Maintaining an efficient commercial kitchen isn’t just about having the right equipment, it’s about creating an environment where cleanliness is second nature. This requires clear policies, proper training and strategic placement of handwashing stations to encourage frequent use. Simple measures like posting instructional signage and reinforcing handwashing protocols help staff integrate cleanliness into their daily routines.

Pairing these best practices with durable stainless-steel hand wash sinks from T&S enforces hygiene efforts, ensuring a safer and more sanitary foodservice environment.

Innovative plumbing solutions for the future

Advancements in technology continue to shape the future of commercial kitchens. Touchless sensor faucets, for example, improve both hygiene and water efficiency by activating only when needed and shutting off automatically. These innovations not only reduce waste but also minimize contact, lowering the risk of cross-contamination.

While handwashing fundamentals remain constant, investing in high-quality, adaptable solutions like T&S Brass hand wash sinks helps kitchens stay ahead of evolving industry standards. By combining innovative equipment with a strong focus on food safety, commercial kitchens can maintain the highest levels of cleanliness.
