Stala ONE redefines sustainability and functionality with its climate-reduced stainless steel sinks, marking a bold advance in sustainable kitchen solutions by seamlessly blending cutting-edge technology, thoughtful design, and environmental responsibility. As the first 100% climate-reduced stainless steel sinks, Stala ONE sets a new standard for eco-friendly functionality and modern aesthetics.
The manufacturing process behind Stala ONE ushers in a sustainable revolution by delivering measurable environmental benefits. Incorporating advanced techniques and relying on 100% renewable wind energy, the production consumes 70% less energy during the washing process, uses 75% less water than traditional methods, reduces stainless steel use in its main component by 25%, and employs 100% recyclable packaging. These achievements demonstrate Stala’s commitment to lowering the environmental impact of its products without compromising quality or durability.
Designed with innovation for maximum usability, Stala ONE sinks feature a laser-patterned working area that skillfully combines style and practicality. This design minimizes visible wear and scratches, helping the sink maintain a sleek look over time, while clearly defining the functional area to improve convenience and efficiency. A deeper rim shape offers practical advantages by keeping water off countertops and enhancing clarity and under-mount installation. The inclusion of a unique strainer not only boosts usability but also adds a visually distinctive touch to the sink.
Installation is made seamless with Stala’s patented StalaHybrid mounting method, which supports top, under, or flush mounting variations. This approach cuts installation time by 40%, eliminates the need for cabinet notching, reduces VOC emissions, and enhances ergonomic handling for installers. Additionally, for worktop manufacturers, the StalaFix method uses a mono-material design to streamline assembly, resulting in a 60% faster process compared to traditional techniques.
Completing the system, the ONE sink collection includes a range of sustainable accessories crafted from eco-conscious materials such as recycled paper composite, certified oak, and renewable biocomposite, ensuring the entire product suite is aligned with Stala’s vision for sustainability and high performance.
