This double-walled triple-insulated Ice Chest sink from Ruvati’s Merino series is a perfect complement for your outdoor kitchen or BBQ area. With years of R&D and innovative technology, Ruvati has developed one of the most advanced ice chest sink in the market. Unlike most other outdoor sinks, this ice chest is constructed of MARINE GRADE T-316 Stainless Steel. T-316 Stainless Steel is specifically formulated for outdoor areas that are exposed to the elements. It has extreme rust resistance, even when fully exposed to sunlight, rain or saltwater.

The sink is constructed of 1.5mm thick 16-GAUGE stainless steel which gives the sink extreme durability against dents. The most innovative feature of the sink is the double-walled triple layer insulation which allows the sink to keep ice frozen for up to 24 hours in the outdoor summer heat. The insulation of this sink is modeled after the insulation in modern refrigerators. The entire sink is double-walled: constructed of 2 layers of stainless steel with a 3/4-inch wide, fully sealed gap in between that is filled with insulating foam. In addition there is another 1/4-inch thick layer of PE foam on the outside that adds further insulation and prevents condensation. The lid of the sink is also double walled and filled with insulating foam. The inside of the sink has 12-inch of bowl depth, allowing you to fit not just beer bottles but also full size wine bottles in it. Keep your outdoor patio fully stocked with ice cold drinks with this premium quality ice chest sink. Pair this ice chest sink with a matching outdoor sink from Ruvati’s Merino series for your perfect outdoor BBQ area.
