Franke, the world's largest stainless steel kitchen sink manufacturer and a leading name in kitchen faucets, today announces the immediate market availability of its new Professional 2.0 Collection. Building on the success of the original Professional Collection, this second-generation series offers refined touches for the serious home chef including a stainless steel finish, deeper bowls, and custom-fit accessories.

Made of 16 gauge, commercial-grade stainless steel and available in a variety of size and configuration options, the Professional 2.0 Collection provides homeowners with a long-lasting entertaining focal point through its classic style and enduring finishes.  

"We're thrilled to build on the success of one of our favorite collections through the introduction of new innovations," said Daniel Schwab, Vice President of Sales & Marketing Franke Kitchen Systems. "With key updates to maximize functionality and style, we've tailored the Professional 2.0 Collection for the serious home chef, creating an enduring collection that's as beautiful as it is useful."

Key Franke Professional 2.0 Collection features include:  

  • New Silk Finish: Sturdy design doesn't require sacrificing elegant aesthetics. The new silk stainless finish takes minimal care to maintain a clean, attractive look for years.
  • Deeper Bowls: The depth and width of the new bowl easily accommodates large pots and pans and minimizes splashing. Undermount bowls integrate beautifully into the surrounding worktop.
  • Drain Placement: Small touches can make a big difference. Professional 2.0 Collection sinks now feature a rear drain to provide more under-counter storage space and in-sink workspace.
  • Accessories: The Professional 2.0 line of sinks has an assortment of custom-fit accessories to expand the functionality of each sink, including a bottom grid, maple wood cutting board, over-the-sink colander, strainer basket, roller mat and drain cover.

Franke's Professional 2.0 Collection is sold exclusively at authorized Franke showrooms for a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) between $1,349 and $2,099 (depending on style and finish).
