The standard stainless steel grade 304 is most commonly used for application where there needs to be resistance from corrosion and where areas need to be cleaned easily and regularly. For example, stainless steel can be used in professional kitchens or areas where there is a lot of food preparation happening.
Stainless steel can also be used on exterior walls due to its aesthetic appearance and its high resistance to corrosion, as well as being lightweight and easy to maintain.
