Stainless steel plate is often referred to as "corrosion-resistant steel" - it does not stain, corrode or rust as easily as regular carbon steel. However, saying it resists corrosion is misleading. It differs significantly from standard carbon steel because the chromium content limits surface corrosion, whereas carbon steel can rust when exposed to air and any moisture in the atmosphere. Stainless steel is often a popular solution due to its antioxidant properties.

Application of stainless steel plates

Where low maintenance and corrosion resistance are required, stainless steel panels are the natural choice and are used in everything from cladding or panels in modern buildings to the food hygiene industry due to their antimicrobial properties.
