The Alveus Collection

Every product Alveus make in this range carries a five-year guarantee. Not most of them, not the flagship ranges, all of them. That kind of consistency across a catalogue says something about how a manufacturer thinks.

Sinks in two materials

The larger part of the range is sinks. Stainless steel leads, taking boiling water and hot pans without complaint and asking for nothing beyond a wipe. Composite granite is next, moulded rather than pressed, bringing colour and a matte surface that hides water marks, and noticeably quieter under a running tap because the wall is thicker and denser.

MagdaS. gave an honest account of one of the composite bowls: "Good very nice looking sink, nice feel too it, bit flimsy silvery metal bit but nothing to worry about."

Fitting, and the unoriented designs

The range covers inset and undermount fitting, with a good number made to accept either, so the mounting decision can wait until the worktop is settled.

Several are described as unoriented, which is worth understanding because the word is unusual. It means the sink has no fixed left or right handing, so the arrangement can face either way at fitting. That removes one of the easier ordering mistakes to make, which is buying a left-hand drainer for a kitchen that needed a right-hand one.

Bowl layouts run from single through one and a half arrangements, and several of the steel bowls carry an integrated drainer pressed from the same sheet, so there is no seam along the join to trap anything.

Angular, squared-off bowls run through much of the range, which is a modern look and a practical one: square internal corners make more of the bowl usable than generously radiused ones do, and every product here is styled modern rather than traditional.

The taps

A smaller, brass-bodied selection, styled to sit with the sinks and carrying the same five-year cover. The Alveus tap range is the easy route to finishes that agree with the bowl, though a deliberate contrast reads perfectly well if that is what your kitchen wants.

Where to start

Go to Alveus kitchen sinks if the bowl is the decision. To compare across manufacturers, the full kitchen sinks and kitchen taps ranges set Alveus against everything else we carry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do all Alveus products have a guarantee?

Every single product in this range carries a five-year manufacturer guarantee, with no exceptions and no registration conditions attached. That consistency is unusual. Most brands have a spread of terms across their range, so knowing the figure without having to check each product is a genuine convenience.

What does Alveus make?

Kitchen sinks mostly, in stainless steel and composite granite, alongside a smaller group of brass-bodied taps. The sinks cover inset, undermount and reversible fitting, including designs described as unoriented, meaning they carry no fixed left or right handing and can be installed facing whichever way your worktop needs.

What is an unoriented sink?

One with no fixed left or right handing, so the drainer or the bowl arrangement can face either way depending on how it is installed. It removes the risk of ordering the wrong hand for your run of worktop, which is an easy and irritating mistake to make.

Are Alveus sinks stainless steel or composite?

Both, with stainless steel making up the larger part and composite granite next. Steel takes heat and hard use without complaint and suits any kitchen; composite brings colour and a matte surface, and is warmer to the touch and quieter under a running tap.

Can Alveus sinks be undermounted?

Many can, and several are made to accept either undermount or inset fitting, which keeps the decision open until the worktop is chosen. Undermounting needs a solid worktop that can be polished and sealed at the cut edge. Laminate wants an inset sink, whose rim protects that edge.

Do Alveus make taps as well?

They do, a smaller brass-bodied selection styled to sit with the sinks. Taking both from one maker is the straightforward route to finishes that agree with each other, though nothing obliges you to match and a deliberate contrast works perfectly well.
