The Canadian location is one of only two BLANCO SILGRANIT® (granite composite) sink productions worldwide, alongside with the company's manufacturing facility in Germany. Known for its many innovations, product quality, and modern styling, BLANCO is the world leading manufacturer and designer of premium kitchen sinks, faucets and accessories with over 90 years of manufacturing experience worldwide.
Today, Blanco Canada is home to its Canadian head office, BLANCO SILGRANIT® manufacturing facility that supports the North American demand, alongside with a growing number of dedicated employees responsible for the Canadian operations, manufacturing and distribution of products in Canada.

Made in Canada SILGRANIT® is a unique, patented material developed by BLANCO that combines 80 percent natural granite stone with a premium acrylic resin formula for strength and durability. SILGRANIT® sinks are scratch, stain, acid and heat-resistant, withstanding up to 280 degrees Celsius, hotter than a pot straight from the stove. This durability in combination with the sink's unique texture and natural beauty has made it the leading coloured sink of choice in the Canadian market. Now, SILGRANIT® sinks are available in over 160 models and seven finishes — Anthracite, Cinder, Café, Truffle, Biscotti, White and the latest finish, Metallic Gray.
