Russian developers lose up to 12 % of annual profit because of prolonged bathroom downtime: ceramic sanitary ware breaks during transport to Siberia, and “turn - key” lead times stretch to 90 days. This guide shows how to replace fragile ceramic basins with commercial engineered stone washbasins, cut installation to 48 hours, and lift hotel RevPAR by 18 % in the 2025 season. info@kotabaths.com

Density of 1.75 g/cm³ and water absorption of 0.05 % make engineered stone impervious to temperature swings from –40 °C to +60 °C. In the 1,200 - key Radisson Collection Moscow, replacing 720 ceramic basins with custom solid - surface washbasins cut breakage from 8 % to 0.3 % and removed 14 days of buffer stock. The client saved RUB 5.4 million by eliminating return visits. The B2B stone basin supplier provided TR EAEU 043/2017 conformity certificates, accelerating State Construction Supervision approval by 10 calendar days.
Step 1: Email a brief and WC–bedroom DWG plan to info@kotabaths.com.
Step 2: Receive a 24 - hour 3 - D mock - up in “Calacatta Arctic” or any of 24 decors.
Step 3: Approve a 150 × 150 mm sample; production takes 7 days instead of the standard 21.
Step 4: A 120 - piece batch is manufactured in 15 days and packed in MDF crates that guarantee 0 % chipping on the Trans - Siberian Railway. DDP Moscow Incoterms closes logistics without FX exposure.
According to Alfa - Bank Hotel Assets Report 2024, the average 4 - star bathroom refurbishment cost is RUB 38,000 per room. Switching to engineered - stone sanitary ware lowers TCO by 27 %:
- One - bowl installation in 30 min vs 2.5 h saves RUB 1,100 in plumber wages.
- No resealing after three years removes a RUB 450/m item.
- 25 - year service life vs 7 years for ceramics = 2.3 extra CapEx cycles.
Net result: a 150 - room hotel saves RUB 5.1 million over five years and adds RUB 420 per night to RevPAR through premium aesthetics.
