Overview

Stoddart WB.KO3 Knee Operated Stainless Steel Wash Basin

The Stoddart WB.KO3 is a hands-free knee operated wash basin engineered for hygienic handwashing in high-demand commercial environments. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the basin is activated via a full-front knee panel, eliminating the need for hand contact during operation and significantly reducing the risk of cross-contamination in food preparation, healthcare, and catering settings.

Designed for straightforward wall mounting, the WB.KO3 features an integrated stainless steel splashback with a bevelled top that encloses plumbing pipework and protects surrounding walls, removing the requirement to run pipes through the wall. A timed flow valve promotes effective handwashing while conserving water, and the included aerated high-rise WELS-rated spout provides easy access with minimal splash. An optional 300 mm splashback extension is available for installations where a tiled splashback is not desired.
