Our favourite travel destination is anyplace beyond the horizon. Colourful, inspiring, exciting and certainly never ordinary: When our SCHOCK sinks go out into the world, they carry a whole lot of surprises with them on their journey. That’s because, as far as we’re concerned, the journey doesn’t end at a set place or a specific address. It ends with a new way of seeing things. Breaking the mould, renewing the context and in so doing, stretching not only our horizons but also our boundaries is what drives us. It’s why we’re admittedly a little bit proud of the fact that SCHOCK sinks are at home the world over and more than 60% of all quartz composite sinks on Earth are produced using the method we invented. Maybe it also has something to do with the fact that even though we love travelling, we never forget our roots – and we are firmly rooted in Germany’s south-east corner, in the picturesque Bavarian Forest. Our aspiration here is to work in partnership with our great collaborators and innovators and pour our courage, curiosity and openness, teamed with our outstanding precision and innovation, into building nothing less than the best and most beautiful sinks in the world. So, where we come from is selfevident. And where we’re going to is all the more exciting. SCHOCK sinks are by nature, and become by design, part of so many different lifestyles – and extra-ordinary stories. Stories of canyons in Arizona and deep-sea divers in outer space, adventures of alpacas and raccoons, tales of desert oceans and rainforests. Why not tag along with us? Be inspired and come on a journey off the beaten track. We hope you have a great time.

HANDMADE IN GERMANY
OF GLOBETROTTERS AND OF ROOTS: SINKS HANDMADE IN GERMANY
Every journey has a starting point. For our sinks, that point is in the middle of the Bavarian Forest. That is the place where not only are new ideas generated, but our products are born, too. Because we are the only manufacturer in the market for quartz composite sinks to manufacture and produce our complete portfolio of products in Germany. With the Handmade in Germany label, with meticulous attention to detail and the highest quality standards, with raw materials from Bavaria and passion in spades. Optimally equipped with these hallmarks, we can send our sinks out on their journey: off to pastures new and into contemporary living spaces. The rich light of the canyon landscape, the mellow green of sage fields and a world of moonstone await. It’s time to conquer new territories. And win new hearts. HANDMADE

OUR TRIP INTO THE COUNTRYSIDE. WITH THE FASHION-FORWARD COLOUR SAGE. Our journey into the countryside takes us past silvery sage fields and into the depths of the rainforest. Nowhere else can you see the colour green presented in so many different facets. When the misty morning skies hang over the jungle and green meets grey, a very special atmosphere materialises. The resulting tranquillity now has a face and a very special colour, one that is currently all the rage in fashion, architecture and technology circles: Sage. What we bring home with us from this jungle expedition feels good, pure and simple – it’s easy on the eye and goes well with all kinds of interior design styles, from the modern country kitchen to the designer loft apartment. Contemporary, subtle and refreshingly cool. Which is exactly what makes it so hot.

THE FASTEST WAY TO GET FROM MOTHER EARTH TO MARS: THE ON-TREND COLOUR CANYON. Do we have time for an adventure? You bet! Our next destination is the most iconic of natural wonders, the Grand Canyon. Our new, fashion-forward colour greets us with warm tones, rich light and the wonderful feeling of coming home. Home to Mother Earth, presenting us with bizarre formations and unmistakable shades of colour. Canyon is great for emphasising features without being loud. Teamed with other red or coppery shades, or even with contrasting colours like opal green, Canyon suits all styles of kitchen furnishing. And even though it is a wonderfully grounding colour, it opens up brand new worlds. By the way, it’s 140 million miles to Mars. Do we have time for an adventure?

AS MANY GREAT COMBINATIONS AS THERE ARE GRAINS OF SAND ON THE BEACH. Where are we off to next? Relaxation central. And what could be better than burying your feet in the sand? We take a ride on the Orient Express to discover the moonstonescapes of the world. When the sun is low in the sky, the flowing lines of the desert and the unique interplay of light and shadow are fascinating to behold. And the endless, dreamy beach is a wonderful place to lose track of time. This soothing effect and the mix of versatility and timelessness make the on-trend colour Moonstone the perfect all-rounder for the home. Combined with earthy, warm tones and materials like brass, cork or grey oak it blends delightfully naturally into a varied range of interior design scapes.

And it’s lovely with natural Scandinavian-style furnishings or the latest interior design trends like the African or desert safari look.

One of a kind: Our Carbon quartz composite sinks. Why do we love Carbon? Because it’s light and extremely strong at the same time. That is why we developed a brand new method for sending the innovative material on its way – from the high-tech world into the premium kitchen. The travel itinerary takes us from handmade quality to material of the future. The engine that propels us is our patented Carbon quartz composite material, which we use to make globally unique Carbon sinks in a range of designs. The Carbon N-100S and Carbon N-100 models show where the journey ends: with exclusive sinks that really impress with their clean lines, incomparable feel and unique design.

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS: TRIM AND MIXER TAP SLEEVES

Stainless steel
Sink sightseeing: With your choice of trim and sleeves for the mixer tap. There’s much to discover in the way of sink individualisation with SCHOCK. Let’s take a closer look at two of the options we offer: Our sleeves encase the mixer taps in the very same quartz composite material our sinks are made of. Not only does this mean that the taps are 100% identical to our CRISTALITE® and CRISTADUR® models in colour and finish, it also makes them really easy to clean and extremely scratch-resistant and shock-proof. If you’re keen to personalise your sink even more and reinvent it time after time, our trim can enable you to do just that: you can have the trim (overflow, basket strainer, drain cup, pop-up) in the exact same finish as your mixer tap. Available in stainless steel, chrome and the Gunmetal or Copper PVD coatings (which look particularly good teamed with the Dion and Neilos mixer taps in the same finish), your coordinated sink and tap are effortlessly transformed into a single designer object. And your SCHOCK sink becomes a real guest magnet.

Quality is in our nature: The Bavarian quartz sand for our sinks. Sometimes you don’t need to look too far afield. The quartz sand for our sinks, for example, comes from right here in Bavaria. Because it’s not just the regionality of the natural raw material that we find so compelling. The quartz sand goes through a combination of meticulous workmanship and innovative production methods at our plant in the Bavarian Forest to become tough handmade sinks which are made to last. The resulting material is extremely hard, resistant to many of the chemicals found in the home, environmentally friendly and food-safe. And normally it takes nothing more than water and a little washing-up liquid to keep it looking good. So there’s nothing standing in the way of you and your sink embarking on a long journey together!

CONVINCING THROUGH AND THROUGH: CRISTALITE® AND CRISTADUR®. What’s the best way to tell the difference between CRISTALITE® and CRISTADUR®? Use your hands! CRISTALITE® has a finish that feels stony and slightly rough, while the patented, poreless finish of CRISTADUR® shines with a silky-smooth feel. Whereas the premium finish of CRISTADUR® occupies an absolute top spot in the quartz composite market, CRISTALITE® is our ever-popular classic, constantly reinventing itself in many marvellous on-trend colours. What both have in common is their unique product quality that can only come from being handmade by people who put their heart into it.

The rigours of everyday use vanish almost without a trace from our tried-and-trusted quartz composite material. Most dirt and grime can’t stick either. And if the kitchen chores do end up leaving their mark, you can normally clean it off with water and washing-up liquid. Because it’s not just beauty that we want to give you with our premium materials but simplicity, too. For special cases we’ve put together some highly active, environmentally responsible and economical care sets which you can use to remove any stains or limescale. Ask your SCHOCK dealer for the right care set or order it online at schock.de/ en/shop.
