A component, such as a fitted sink, wash-basin and the like, which has an outward side and a rear side and consists of a composition made of a resin forming a matrix and a filler material formed at least predominantly from quartz particles, the majority of the quartz particles having a size from 0.1 mm to 2 mm for improving the characteristics of use, the filler material forming approximately 60 to 80% by weight of the composition and the quartz particles having a non-broken grain form and being packed more densely in the regions of the component which are severely stressed in use than at the rear of the component. For manufacturing a component of this type, a mould for curing the resin is brought into a position in which the outward side of the regions of the component, which are severely stressed in use, is directed downwards. …<IMAGE>… |
