Metal tables with three sinks without a shelf are professional stainless steel kitchen tables with three washing basins and an open lower section. Three sinks allow you to organise a complete washing process in a single unit — pre-treatment, washing and rinsing, which meets the requirements of the HACCP standard. This three-step washing system is a mandatory requirement in the hygiene regulations of professional canteens and restaurants. The open lower section without a shelf ensures free air circulation and easy cleaning under the table, which is important in a damp kitchen environment. The polished stainless steel surface is corrosion-resistant and easily disinfected with standard food industry cleaning agents. BHS offers these tables as part of the Work Tables with Sinks and Basins range to HoReCa businesses across Europe.

Metal tables with three sinks without a shelf are specialised washing equipment for professional kitchens where a full three-stage washing system is required. The open lower section without a shelf ensures free air circulation and makes cleaning under the table easier.
Three-basin washing system
A table with three sinks allows you to organise a complete washing process without moving between different zones. The first basin is for pre-treatment and removing dirt, the second for washing with detergent, and the third for rinsing with clean water. This system significantly reduces cross-contamination and ensures a higher hygiene standard than a two-basin solution. Three-stage washing is also more time-efficient — different stages are carried out in parallel, not sequentially.
HACCP and hygiene regulations
Sanitary regulations in the food industry and HoReCa businesses require the organisation of a washing process in accordance with HACCP principles. The three-basin configuration is the classic HACCP-compliant washing scheme for processing food contact surfaces and utensils. Separate basins for each stage prevent dirty water from mixing with washing and rinsing water. Regular disinfection with certified food industry agents maintains the required hygiene level. BHS advises businesses on the appropriate washing zone configuration.
Advantages of stainless steel
Stainless steel is a material that meets all HoReCa and food industry hygiene standards. It is corrosion-resistant even under prolonged exposure to water and cleaning chemicals, does not absorb microorganisms, and does not allow colours or aromas to pass through. The polished steel surface is easy to disinfect and complies with sanitary regulations. The durability of steel is also confirmed by its service life — a properly maintained steel table lasts for decades.
Without a shelf — advantages and disadvantages
A table without a lower shelf is easier to clean under the table — moisture and dirt do not accumulate, which would otherwise build up on the shelf. The open lower section also ensures better air circulation, which helps faster drying after cleaning. The disadvantage is the lack of additional storage space near the washing zone. If storage is needed, BHS also offers Metal Tables with Three Sinks and a Shelf. The choice between these options is based on the kitchen space configuration and storage needs.
High-capacity kitchens
Large restaurants, hotel kitchens, canteens and food production facilities with high dish turnover often choose three-basin tables as the central element of the washing zone. The three-basin system allows more utensils to be processed simultaneously, dividing the work between three stages. Larger kitchens sometimes install two adjacent three-basin tables, creating a complete washing line. BHS helps plan the optimal washing zone configuration for the largest HoReCa kitchens.
Water systems and connections
A table with three sinks requires three separate drainage connections and water supply to both end sinks or all three, depending on the model. During installation, it is important to ensure that the drainage capacity matches the simultaneous discharge from three basins. Limescale deposits in hard water conditions can form in the drainage system — regular descaling is recommended.
Size selection
Tables with three sinks are available in various overall widths depending on the size of each sink. A larger sink provides more comfortable work with large utensils and pans. When choosing the size, consider the kitchen space width, the location of water connections and the required workspace around the washing zone. BHS helps businesses choose the table size according to kitchen space parameters and the volume of utensils.
Installation and preventive maintenance
A table with three sinks is installed by connecting the water supply and drainage to each sink. Professional installation ensures the correct drainage angle and prevents water stagnation. Regular cleaning and disinfection in all three sinks maintain the required hygiene standard.
Three-sink tables and kitchen efficiency
In a professional kitchen, the washing zone with three basins is one of the main efficiency factors. A well-organised washing zone allows the kitchen team to work without delays — utensils go to washing and return to circulation as quickly as possible. A three-basin table without a shelf is a more compact design, suitable for kitchens where cleaning under the table is a high priority. Regular maintenance of the area under the table is part of complying with HACCP requirements in daily work. BHS helps kitchens choose washing equipment that meets both efficiency and sanitary regulation requirements.
