ABOUT KITCHEN TAPS
Kitchen taps divide into modern and traditional
designs. Modern kitchen taps are usually in chrome, but are also available in
stainless steel, in black, and with parts of the kitchen tap in a colour to
match a composite kitchen sink. Modern kitchen taps may have single or dual
handles, and may have a flexible hose with a spray rinse.
Traditional kitchen taps are suitable for use in farm-house-style
kitchens. These kitchen taps are available in chrome, and also in antique
finishes such as brushed nickel and bronze. Some traditional kitchen taps
feature decorative ceramic parts. Leading UK suppliers of kitchen taps are
profiled below the panel of sponsored links.
