Guardian Care

Handwash stations in a busy kitchen take a beating, and the tapware there needs to hold up to dozens of uses every service without becoming a water-waste problem. Guardian Care makes stainless steel lever taps with that environment squarely in mind — straightforward to operate with wet or gloved hands, and available in flow configurations that suit different station types.

At Chefs Depot you can pick the model that matches how your station actually runs. The 6-second timed pillar tap suits a fast handwash point; the 18-second version gives a bit more time where needed; the adjustable timed-flow model lets you dial in the duration yourself; and the mechanical on/off tap works wherever a timed flow is not a priority. Rounding out the six products are a stainless steel in-wall mixer and a lever basin mixer carrying a 6 Star water-efficiency rating — useful if your fitout needs to meet council or certification requirements.

Because these are sold individually, you can order exactly what each position calls for and add them to your regular shop without committing to a larger project quote.
