A countertop assembly and method of making same. The method includes obtaining at least first and second layers that each include first and second alignment openings defined therein, disposing adhesive onto the upper surface of the first layer or the bottom surface of the second layer, stacking the second layer on the first layer, aligning the first alignment openings and aligning the second alignment openings, inserting a first alignment rod through the aligned first alignment openings, inserting a second alignment rod through the aligned second alignment openings, allowing the adhesive to dry to form a countertop stack assembly, and machining the countertop stack assembly to remove at least a portion of a surface of the first layer and at least a portion of a surface of the second layer to form a finished countertop assembly.

A sanitary equipment with a water supply system, a water route system, and a hand washing table are provided. The sanitary equipment includes a machine having a machine water outlet; a movable hand washing table pivoted on the machine and located below the machine water outlet, the movable hand washing table being capable of opening or retracting with respect to the machine; and a water route system disposed in the machine and connected to the machine water outlet to discharge potable water and non-potable water from the machine water outlet.

A portable liquid dispensing station for outdoor use in cold temperatures comprises a housing defining a base for resting on a support surface and enclosed interior thereover, at least one liquid storage tank supported inside the housing for containing unused liquid, a pump supported inside the housing in fluidic communication with the tank for conveying the unused liquid under pressure to a downstream location, a liquid dispensing device supported externally of the housing but in downstream fluidic communication with the tank for selectively releasing the liquid, a basin supported externally of the housing for collecting the released liquid, and a collection tank in fluidic communication with the basin to collect the used liquid for storage and which is supported inside the housing. The liquid dispensing device, the basin and the collection tank are heated and the air inside the housing is also heated to prevent the liquid from freezing.

A portable hygiene station that is configured to be transportable so as to facilitate execution of hygiene protocols such as but not limited to hand washing at locations wherein utility infrastructure is unavailable. The portable hygiene station includes a frame wherein the frame is manufactured from a plurality of support members. The frame includes an upper portion and a lower portion that are integrally formed. The lower portion of the frame has mounted therein a first tank and a second tank. Mounted to a support shelf on the lower portion is a power supply and a pump that is electrically coupled to the power supply. The pump is configured to transfer fluid from the first tank into a basin member via a faucet member. Fluid from the basin member is subsequently transferred to the second tank. A top member provides coverage of the station and further has a photovoltaic panel.

A sink is provided. The sink includes a basin having a front wall. The sink includes a rim supported at and extending outwardly from an upper end of the front wall in a substantially horizontal orientation. The sink includes an apron extending from the rim. The apron extends vertically between a top wall and an opposing bottom wall and laterally between a first side wall and an opposing second side wall. The apron is coupled to the basin only at the top wall of the apron by the rim. The apron extends laterally outward past the rim such that a first rear edge of the first side wall and a second rear edge of the second side wall are spaced apart from the rim.

In an example, a method for forming a sink is disclosed. The method includes positioning a blank in a vacuum chamber. The blank is formed from a metal sheet. The method also includes applying a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process to the blank within the vacuum chamber to form a hardcoat layer over a surface of the blank and manipulating the blank to form the sink.

A sink system is provided. The sink system is configured for coupling within a recessed cabinet space. The sink system includes a cabinet module and a sink module coupled to an upper end of the cabinet module. The sink module includes a sink basin and a faucet. The sink system further includes a water delivery system configured to receive a flow of water from a utility line and selectively provide the flow of water to the sink module based on a control signal received from a controller. The controller may be a wired or wireless puck that is positioned near the sink basin. The water delivery system may further include a water filtration system, and the digital control valve may provide the flow of water to the water filtration system before the flow of water is provided to the sink module.
