Stainless steel is the ideal material for the design of kitchen equipment. Moreover, these are available in very many models and sizes. Precisely, how to choose them well? What are the criteria to take into account? This is what we invite you to discover here in this guide.

Why choose stainless steel equipment?

• Stainless steel, a resistant material: in fact, this material can withstand extreme temperatures. As a result, stainless steel kitchen accessories are suitable for cooking, but also for freezing various culinary preparations. It should also be noted that they are resisting impacts or scratches, and therefore have a considerable service life.

• Stainless steel, a hygienic material: unlike plastic, stainless steel remains stable in the presence of heat and does not release any toxic substance. In addition, it is very easy to clean and prevents the spread of bacteria and other germs.

• Stainless steel is dishwasher-proof: it therefore saves kitchen staff considerable time.

The thickness, a purpose to take into account to best choose your material

The stainless-steel material for the CHR sector is available in several thicknesses, between 0.3 and 1.7 mm. The higher thickness, the better resistance to deformation.

The professionals at Stellinox advise you to opt for stainless steel equipment with a thickness of more than 0.6 mm. Indeed, these devices have better resistance to deformation and are more suitable for intensive use in the kitchen, or in the dining room. On the other hand, for large stainless-steel equipment, it is preferable to opt for a thickness of at least 0.8 mm, always in order to take advantage of a robust and resistant material.

We also draw your attention to the quality of stainless steel. Again, the higher it is, the higher resistance of the material facing corrosion. On our Stellinox online store, find accessories in 18/10 stainless steel, offering you high-end performance.
