Care & Maintenance

A Guide to Lasting Beauty & Performance

Stainless steel isn’t just a material — it’s a commitment to quality. When you choose stainless steel taps and sinks, you’re investing in durability, hygiene, and timeless style. Whether installed in a warm industrial kitchen, a clean Scandinavian bathroom, or a luxury hospitality suite, stainless steel products elevate the space with quiet confidence.

But even the most robust materials benefit from care. With a few simple habits, you can preserve the beauty, functionality, and integrity of your stainless steel for decades — while avoiding the most common pitfalls that shorten its lifespan. And while stainless steel is at the heart of our collection, other premium finishes like brass also deserve proper care. With a few simple habits, you can preserve the beauty, functionality, and integrity of every fixture in your project — for years to come.

Here’s how to protect your investment.


Why Stainless Steel Is Always in Style

Unlike coated or chrome-plated fixtures, stainless steel is solid throughout. There’s no finish that can peel, chip, or fade — just pure, 100% stainless steel with a soft satin grain that resists corrosion, stains, and wear.

Its non-porous surface makes it naturally antibacterial and incredibly easy to clean. That’s why it’s trusted in both home kitchens and high-use hospitality environments.

But like any premium surface, stainless steel needs mindful maintenance. Water, soap, limescale, and even air exposure can gradually affect its appearance — unless you take simple preventive steps.


Everyday Habits That Make a Difference

Clean weekly. Use a soft microfiber cloth and a stainless steel cleaner or a mild, pH-neutral soap. Wipe gently with the grain of the satin finish, then rinse thoroughly and dry. This prevents water spots and maintains the smooth surface.

Dry after use. In kitchens and bathrooms, especially in hard water areas, quick daily drying after use goes a long way. It reduces mineral buildup and keeps limescale from forming — preserving the product’s natural shine.

Use citric-acid-based cleaners for tougher deposits. These are safe for stainless steel and effective on limescale, unlike vinegar or chemical descalers, which can damage the surface.

Think of stainless steel care like polishing a fine piece of furniture or maintaining a designer shoe. It’s not hard — but it’s essential.


What to Avoid: The Enemies of Elegance

Protect your stainless steel from damage by avoiding these common mistakes:

  • No chlorine or bleach. These chemicals cause corrosion and can ruin the satin finish.

  • No vinegar or anti-limescale sprays. Despite popular use, they are too harsh for true stainless steel and can cause etching or discoloration.

  • No steel wool or abrasive pads. They leave behind metal particles that rust and scratch the surface.

  • No standing water or soaked cloths. Don’t leave wet sponges, rubber mats, or soap residue sitting in or on your sink — they can cause surface rust and pitting.

  • Don’t scour across the grain. This damages the surface and dulls the finish permanently.

  • No cutting directly on the sink. Stainless steel is strong, but it’s not a chopping board.

A gentle, consistent approach is the key to keeping your stainless steel beautiful.


Lasting Performance Across All Spaces

From residential kitchens to commercial bathrooms, stainless steel delivers unmatched reliability. It resists bacteria, withstands heavy use, and adapts to a wide variety of interior styles. But what makes it truly exceptional is how little it asks for in return — just regular care and a bit of attention.

Our stainless steel products are engineered for life. Whether you’re installing a faucet in a modern loft or equipping a hotel suite with matching accessories, proper maintenance helps protect the original beauty and performance.


Don’t Forget the Accessories

Just like the sink or tap, accessories crafted from RVS deserve equal care. That includes:

  • Strainer bowls and drainer baskets

  • Sink racks and bottom protectors

  • Foldable or lay-on drainers

  • Soap dispensers

These elements complete the experience — and when maintained properly, they maintain the overall look and quality of the space.


Brass Finishes – Care Instructions for Long-Term Performance

Brass components require a specific approach to maintenance. To preserve their appearance and function, end users should follow these care guidelines:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild, pH-neutral soap only.

  • Never use acidic, abrasive, or chlorine-based cleaners.

  • Wipe dry after each use to avoid staining, tarnish, or discoloration.

  • Avoid scouring pads or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.

  • Natural brass will develop a patina over time. For a polished finish, a brass-safe cleaner may be used occasionally.


Let Your Products Perform — and Last

Whether crafted from stainless steel or brass, every tap, sink, and fitting is an investment in quality. Proper care not only protects the finish — it preserves function, hygiene, and long-term satisfaction.

Whether you’re a homeowner, designer, or project manager, following these simple care habits ensures that your stainless steel or brass investment remains just as impressive as the day it was installed.
