Stainless steel work surfaces are low carbon steel made up of chromium and nickel. Chromium makes it resistant to rust and corrosion, while nickel makes it stain and heat resistant. Stainless steel has a non-porous surface, resistant to liquids or substances penetrating the material. Bacteria, mold and other common germs don’t stand a chance with stainless.
- Moderate to Heavy Duty
- High Bacterial Resistance
- Moderate Chemical Resistance
- Moderate Corrosive Resistance
- High Fungal Resistance
- High Water and Moisture Resistance
- Continuous heat exposure above 1500 °F
- Labs performing experiments and tests where results depend on non-contamination, require worksurfaces that can handle high temperatures and are easily cleanable
- Biological science, chemical, clean room, food testing, hospital, medical, and pharmaceutical labs.
- SEFA 3 – 2010 Laboratory Work surfaces
Note: May discolour at prolonged high temperatures, Low Scratch Resistance, Dents easily on impact
