Furthermore, the 304-type, or “Food Grade” Stainless Steel is corrosion resistant and allows for optimal hygiene. The unit supplied to LRH has an optional P or S Trap, coming in an Enviro-Glaze® White Finish, best suited for the setting. However, this unit is also offered Enviro-Glaze® White external finish and a Stainless Steel internal finish, or a Stainless Steel total finish.
