Dishwashing sink Novameta PV1-PRO-80/70/90

A stainless steel worktop with an integrated sink brings dirty crockery straight from service to the wash station without crossing the kitchen. The unit stands between the dining area and the dishwasher, holding plates, cutlery and glassware until they are loaded into racks. A single operator can clear, scrape and stack without moving from the spot, cutting steps and keeping the floor clear of trays and trolleys.

The worktop itself is a flat, seamless sheet of stainless steel that resists heat, water and detergents. A raised rim around the edge stops spills from running onto the floor, and the sink is set into the top so that scraps and water drain directly into the bowl. The sink is deep enough to hold a full rack of plates for pre-rinsing, and the tap is positioned so that the operator can reach it without stretching. Below the worktop, a shelf stores detergent, brushes or empty racks, keeping them off the floor and within arm's reach.

To use the unit, the operator scrapes food waste into a bin placed beside the sink, then stacks the crockery on the worktop or in the sink. When the dishwasher is free, the racks are loaded and slid into the machine. The shelf below holds the next set of racks, so the operator can keep working without waiting for the wash cycle to finish. The sequence is continuous: scrape, stack, load, repeat.

The frame is welded stainless steel, and the worktop is a single sheet with no seams or joints. The sink is pressed from the same material and welded into the top, so there are no crevices where dirt can collect. The shelf is either a solid stainless steel plate (reinforced) or a grid of stainless steel rods (grid), both fixed to the frame with adjustable feet for levelling. The feet raise the unit off the floor, allowing water to drain underneath and making the floor easier to clean.

Controls are limited to the tap, which is a standard lever-operated mixer. The lever sets water flow and temperature, and the spout is long enough to reach the sink and the worktop for rinsing.

The 800 mm width matches the standard width of a commercial dishwasher, so the unit fits directly against the machine without a gap. The 700 mm depth allows room for a full rack of plates on the worktop and a second rack on the shelf below. The 900 mm height is standard worktop height, so it aligns with other counters and prep tables in the kitchen. The unit is moved by sliding it on its feet or lifting it with a trolley; the weight is distributed evenly across the frame, so it does not tip when pushed.

Cleaning is done with a cloth and detergent, wiping the worktop, sink and shelf after each service. The stainless steel surface is non-porous, so it does not absorb grease or food particles. The grid shelf allows air to circulate, so it dries faster than a solid shelf. The feet are adjustable, so the unit can be levelled on uneven floors, and the gap underneath is large enough to sweep or mop.

Two shelf options are available: reinforced (solid stainless steel) or grid (stainless steel rods). The base model includes no shelf; the options are priced separately as noted in the specifications.
