Use a soft cloth and a mild cleaning agent such as glass cleaner to clean the glass. Aggressive chemicals and abrasive products should be avoided in order to prevent scratches and preserve the finish.

A high-quality glass basin hardly scratches at all under normal use. Thanks to special heat treatment and finishing, glass can even be more scratch-resistant than ceramic. Nor do you need to worry about discolouration or a loss of luminosity — the colour is created within the glass itself and remains permanently brilliant. All that matters is avoiding abrasive cleaning agents so that the glass surface retains its flawless shine.

SICIS glass basins belong to the luxury segment, which explains their higher price. Unlike mass-produced items, they are made in Italy using traditional craftsmanship, giving each piece a unique structure and a refined appearance with a fine grooved texture. Added to this are first-class materials (such as tempered, lead-free glass) and the utmost precision in production — every detail is carefully executed. The result is a truly exclusive design object for your bathroom, convincing through its unusual colours and lasting quality, and clearly setting itself apart from conventional products.

The robustness of a glass basin depends on the material used.
Glass basins made of tempered glass, lead-free soda glass or quartz glass are
particularly durable and resistant to everyday demands.
These types of glass offer high stability, but should nevertheless be protected from hard
impacts. In direct comparison with ceramic basins, the types of glass mentioned are almost equally robust.

Caring for a glass basin is remarkably simple. A soft cloth and a mild glass cleaner are all that is needed for daily cleaning. Thanks to the pore-free, extremely smooth surface, dirt, limescale and germs barely adhere, so the basin gleams again in no time. Aggressive or abrasive cleaning products should be avoided so as not to scratch the surface and to preserve the brilliant shine of the glass.

Many glass countertop basins do indeed have no overflow hole. This is primarily for aesthetic reasons: without an overflow, the form of the basin remains entirely undisturbed and appears particularly elegant and purist. In everyday use this simply means that — as with any basin — you should take care not to leave the tap running unattended. Suitable waste valves without overflow are readily available and ensure that the water drains away safely even without an overflow.

Glass basins are attractive, durable and easy to clean. They often feature a minimalist design without an overflow, giving them a modern and elegant look.

A coloured glass basin can be deliberately incorporated into your bathroom design as a highlight. It looks especially coherent when you pick up the basin colour elsewhere in the room, for example with matching SICIS glass mosaic tiles that harmoniously complement the shade of the basin. Lighting also plays a part: light falling onto the textured glass surface makes the basin appear to glow and emphasises the brilliance of the colour. In this way the basin becomes the radiant centrepiece of the bathroom and lends the room an exclusive design flair.
