Stainless Steel Selection and Design

Stainless steels are an integral part of modern life — from kitchen utensils and public transport fittings to critical infrastructure and space applications. Far from being a single material, stainless steels form a family of more than 200 alloys, each engineered to provide a balance of strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal.

With an exceptional recycling rate of 96%, stainless steels exemplify circularity and sustainability in material design. Their combination of hygiene, performance, and longevity makes them indispensable for industries aiming to enhance safety, reduce environmental impact, and support sustainable growth.

In this steelTalk, Tim Collins, Secretary-General of worldstainless, will discuss how to approach stainless steel selection and design effectively. Participants will gain insights into the families of stainless steels, their diverse applications, and how thoughtful material choice contributes to sustainable design and human protection in a modern, economic context.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand the different families of stainless steels.
• Learn how to select the correct grade for specific applications.
• Discover how stainless steels perform across diverse environments.
• Explore their efficiency and cost-effectiveness as engineering materials.
• Recognise their role in health, safety, and sustainability.

Stainless Steel Food Boxes; for Universal Lifetime Use

When you have leftover food, are meal-prepping, or taking a lunch to work or school … a new revolution is available to help you. Stainless steel microwave-safe food containers are versatile and with just one box you can store, freeze, and then reheat your food. After use, you just clean and reuse. No need to waste food and no more single-use packaging waste.

Protecting People in Urban Settings

The protection of people can be considered from many perspectives including health and hygiene protection, physical safety protection and even mental wellbeing protection. Stainless steels whilst widely used in elements of our society, offer a vast range of economic protection benefits, many of which will not be fully understood or even considered by many people.

This webinar outlines what we should all be thinking about to keep everyone safe now and well into the future.

Stainless steel: your partner in hygiene

Over the last 100 years the notion of ‘making available to everybody’ a high level of hygiene in their personal environment, in safe food and drinks preparation, in medical services and in public infrastructure has been a big achievement. Stainless steels have played a significant role in this process. The bright and easy-to-clean surfaces make it quite obvious that stainless steel is a material for a healthier life. But what makes stainless steel your partner in hygiene?
