Stainless Steel
Material Description
We use #304 grade stainless steel in our furniture collection. It contains a
maximum of 0.15% carbon, a minimum of 18% chromium and sufficient nickel to
retain an austenitic structure at all temperatures. Grade #304 is the most versatile
and the most widely used of all stainless steels. Its chemical composition,
mechanical properties, weld ability and corrosion resistance
provide the best all-round performance stainless steel.
A superb material for great looking outdoor furniture. Low maintenance, long life
and versatile, stainless steel is practical, durable and aesthetically pleasing on the
eye. It has excellent bending and welding characteristics, thus easy to give any
shape regardless of losing properties.
This grade of stainless steel is used in all industrial, commercial and domestic
fields because of its good corrosion and heat resisting properties. The surface
finish on Stainless Steel is finely developed and maintained during finishing
process to ensure pleasing aesthetic appearance of Stainless Steel.

Maintenance & Care
Stainless steel is generally resistant to corrosion. Natural hazards such as dust and moisture in the air can attack the finish on this type of outdoor furniture. A regular cleaning of stainless steel frames is required on a monthly basis to remove the natural deposits, salts. Use fresh water only; spray the frames down thoroughly at a high hose pressure. A soft dusting cloth can then be used to enhance the surface. The brushed finish of stainless steel can be maintained yearly with a non-abrasive cleaner.
