Why we choose 316 marine-grade stainless steel over 304 for our channel drains π
1. Superior Corrosion Resistance
Added molybdenum protects against rust, pitting, and tea staining. Perfect for areas exposed to salt, chlorides, and constant moisture.
2. Stronger in Wet or Harsh Environments
316 keeps its strength and finish even in humidity, standing water, and heavy cleaning routines.
3. Longer Lifespan, Less Maintenance
Better corrosion resistance means fewer repairs, less polishing, and a cleaner appearance over time.
4. Ideal for Hygiene-Critical Spaces
Stable under constant cleaning and sanitisers. Great for commercial kitchens, food prep areas, and healthcare settings.
5. Broader Chemical Resistance
Salt, acids, and strong cleaners wear down 304 faster. 316 handles them with ease for a more reliable drainage system.
Simply put: 316 lasts longer, looks better, and works harder!
