Back to Basics – Kohler Launches Mica Black Basins

Black is having a major moment in bathrooms and the new, super slim, statement-making basin from Kohler is no exception. The beautifully elegant Mica honed black countertop vessel is an immediate heart-stopper.  In both a square and round format these basins bring a very refined sense of style to any bathroom - but that is only part of the story.

 Kohler has developed a super-ceramic whereby the walls of the basin are incredibly slim - just 6mm - giving the appearance of extreme delicacy and elegance.  Yet the Mica basins are outstandingly durable and even harder than traditional vitreous china.

Each of the basins features Kohler’s CleanCoat™ finish that creates an invisible stain-resistant surface that ensures the basin retains its original glossy, pristine good looks after many years of use. CleanCoat technology prevents bacteria, mildew and mineral deposits from sticking to the bowl, so the basin stays cleaner longer.

CleanCoat combines cutting-edge chemistry with material science and process engineering to create a surface that’s extremely easy to keep clean. Specialised nanoparticles organise themselves evenly in an ultra-thin layer. Binding particles attach to the basin. Repellent particles organise towards the surface, deflecting water, dirt and lime scale. The treated surface repels water and dirt, letting it run off in droplets instead of calcifying in place. It also minimizes debris from sticking for an effortless clean.

The Mica countertop basins in honed black come in two designs – 393mm square and a 410mm diameter round version.  There are also gloss white versions of the Mica available. The Mica Countertop Vessels, by Kohler are available nationally from retailers. Minimalist, super slim design makes Mica a striking focal point in the bathroom. Its compellingly clean silhouette complements a variety of contemporary bathroom decor. Simple and smooth lines make it easy to clean.
