FOOD PREP AND CLEANUP MADE EASY WITH HANDS-FREE KOHLER CREVASSE RINSING SINK
One-touch actuator activates rush of water and garbage disposal

KOHLER, Wis. – May 1, 2008 – Kohler Co., a global leader in kitchen and bath design and technology, introduces the Crevasse™ rinsing sink, engineered to revolutionize food preparation and cleanup by combining an integrated garbage disposal and rinsing action into one easy step—all at the touch of a button.

“The Crevasse rinsing sink from Kohler brings a whole new level of function to prep and cleanup, the two primary uses of any kitchen sink,” said Andy Barber, marketing director for KOHLER kitchen products. “Cooking enthusiasts are certain to appreciate the sink’s ease of use and effectiveness, while designers will admire the crisp, contemporary design aesthetic that blends nicely into any décor.”

The Crevasse stainless steel rinsing sink utilizes Cynchronus™ technology, which activates a rinsing action and the garbage disposal at the touch of a button. A small stainless steel plate, with two buttons, is mounted near the sink, providing the user with two options – a quick rinse down the drain, or a wash-like flow of water that also activates the garbage disposal to remove food waste properly. This technology allows for hands-free operation of the disposal, making food preparation and cleanup easier, cleaner and safer. The sink also includes a Kohler silicon baffle, which is designed to significantly improve the amount of waste sent down the drain without assistance from the user.

Initially unveiled at the recent Kitchen/Bath Industry Show, the KOHLER Crevasse rinsing sink brings a much-needed piece of modern technology to the task of cutting and preparing many types of food, such as fruits, vegetables and meats.

The trough-like, sloped design of the rinsing sink provides ample space for food waste to be easily brushed directly into the basin, yet the 33-inch model size is sure to fit into any work space in the kitchen, including alongside a primary sink or as a stand-alone model in an island configuration. Installing the Crevasse prep sink is just as easy as any other undermount sink, with the addition of a cold water line attachment to activate the rinsing device. The garbage disposal simply plugs into the sink’s interface device; any standard size garbage disposal is adaptable to fit the Crevasse sink.
