We are an Australian company committed to putting sustainability at the heart and core of our business.

Your concern for the environment is shared by us at The Basin Lab, our goal is to minimise the environmental impact of our production processes and reduce the resource consumption from using our products by creating durable, low-maintenance items designed to last a lifetime.

Compared to traditional ceramic and concrete bathware products, The Basin Lab’s Oxyform™ products have a significantly lower carbon footprint in production and use throughout their lifecycle. Refer to some of our processes below that highlight the sustainability aspects our products achieve.

• All of our products are handcrafted in our studio at Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast, Australia. Our production methods use minimal energy and resources.
• Our bathware products are made from our unique resin composite material called Oxyform™, designed with durability, longevity, and sustainability in mind.
• Oxyform™ is a low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) material that cures when exposed to oxygen, requiring no need to use water or heat.
• Each basin is sculpted specific to size (+/- 5mm), leaving no wastage or clean-up after each basin is crafted. Not a single drop of Oxyform™ is wasted.
• Our basins are easy to maintain. Due to their dense and non-porous surface, our basins are stain and bacteria-resistant and clean up easily with only a sponge and warm soapy water. No harsh chemicals are required. No ongoing maintenance waxes or sealers are needed.
• CO2 emissions per basin are considerably lower than concrete and ceramic alternatives.
• In the rare event of damage to the surface of a basin, it can be easily polished or repaired over the product’s lifetime.
• Our Oxyform basins are substantially lighter in weight compared to other ceramic or concrete basins. They require less energy for building elements, transport, and installation.
• Our unique colouring system flows through the entire product which ensures repeated consistent colour matching so no samples are discarded.
• All of our packaging is recyclable and sourced through Australian suppliers.
• All our raw materials are sourced locally within Australia.
• All basins meet standards AS/NZS 1730:1996.
