Stainless steel first came to prominence in construction during the art-deco period.Due to its strength, flexibility and resistance to corrosion, stainless steel is now commonly used in modern construction. It is used in the exterior cladding for large high impact buildings and can be seen in the interiors too in the form of handrails, counter tops, backsplashes and more.Stainless steel is easily welded, has an attractive finish and is low maintenance.
