The benefits of Stainless Steel
NERO Pipeline Connections is a market leading distributor of stainless pipeline products throughout the UK and has been leading the field for the last 30 years. In our latest blog, we look at the advantages of stainless steel and why it's such a revolutionary product.
- Sustainability
One key advantage that hasn't had a lot of attention until recently is that stainless steel is a highly sustainable material. It is 100% recyclable in its original form - it can be repurposed should it cease to serve its original function.
- Resilience
Stainless steel pipe is extremely corrosion resistant. In the early development, the addition of chromium was the key component that gave stainless steel this quality and was seen as the major breakthrough in its development. Stainless steel has evolved hugely since then with many grades available.
- Sanitation and Hygiene
Stainless steel is an extremely hygienic material due to the fact that it is extremely easy to clean and sanitise. It’s non-porous surface is also smooth which means that bacteria struggle to adhere to it and when there is any degree of adhesion, can be easily wiped clean. Stainless Steel is used frequently in kitchens, hospitals, laboratories and factories.
- Strength
Stainless steel is highly durable, largely because it has a low susceptibility to brittleness at high and low temperatures. This means that the material will retain its shape for most of it's lifespan and resist wide changes in temperature and conditions.
