Countertop washbasins for your bathroom

Stylish, functional, timeless

Since countertop washbasins are not built into the vanity unit itself, the stylish wash bowls really come into their own in terms of shape and colour. This is why countertop basins have become a real design trend in the bathroom. 
A countertop washbasin consists of a vanity cabinet and a washbasin that rests on the vanity top. The countertop washbasin, placed in such a prominent position, plays a vital part in the overall design. At Villeroy & Boch, you will find a wide selection of different shapes and colours.

The countertop washbasin as a statement

Whether you have a small washbasin or a double vanity cabinet with countertop washbasin, this element plays a key design role in the overall design of your bathroom. With such a wide variety of models to choose from, you can create an individual highlight in your bathroom.

Popular shapes for countertop washbasins

Since countertop washbasins are not built into the vanity cabinet itself, they can be designed in almost any shape. Villeroy & Boch has proven this with its multi-award-winning Octagon premium vanity unit. You can therefore customise your vanity unit with a countertop washbasin even more than a conventional ensemble.

Ceramic countertop washbasins - durable, elegant and easy to clean

A ceramic washbasin belongs in every bathroom. Opting for a countertop basin means gives you maximum design freedom. The particularly smooth surface of ceramic sanitaryware ensures an elegant look and easy cleaning. Villeroy & Boch has further refined the outstanding properties of ceramic with its innovative material TitanCeram . It can be used to design bathroom ceramics that are extremely thin yet incredibly stable.

The right tap(s) for your countertop washbasin

A countertop washbasin with vanity cabinet gives you flexible design freedom. The washbasin itself and the tap(s) can be positioned freely. Naturally, everything should be suited to the existing features. The wash bowls must match the taps and overflow assembly. If these requirements are met, installation is possible either on the vanity top or on the wall.

Bespoke bathroom design with lasting quality

A countertop washbasin is not just for washing your hands. Positioned on the vanity top, it also becomes the defining design factor in your bathroom. Choose the shape and colour to suit your personal taste and create your own individual design.

Countertop washbasins - clever solutions even where space is limited

Even a small countertop washbasin plays a key role in the design of your bathroom. This allows you to showcase your vanity unit in style even in confined spaces. If you choose an oval countertop washbasin, it requires very little space in terms of width. A countertop washbasin in black is always an eye-catcher, even if it is not large.

Cleaning & caring for countertop washbasins

The surface of our ceramic sanitaryware is extremely smooth; the material itself is extremely dense and virtually scratch-resistant. This is why the shimmering lustre is retained for a particularly long time. Although our washbasins are resistant to common household acids and alkalis, you should not use harsh cleaning products. A damp cloth is often sufficient. Remove limescale deposits with vinegar.

Tips for installing your countertop washbasin

To install a countertop washbasin, you will need a vanity top with an opening for the pipework. The positioning of the drain and overflow depends on whether you have a countertop washbasin with a tap hole or not. If your basin does not have a tap hole, the tap(s) can be mounted either on the vanity unit or on the wall.

Create an individual touch with the right tap(s)

The choice of tap(s) can give your bathroom even more individuality. Install the washbasin tap(s) directly on or next to the washbasin as required. Wall-mounted tap fittings create a particularly exclusive look, as this keeps the basin completely free-standing. From our range of taps, you can choose the one that best complements your personal bathroom style.
