The constant research in the emerging technologies and materials is crucial to create a high quality outdoor product that is able to withstand adverse weather conditions. This research has led us to use stainless steel alloy with a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass.
Stainless steels contain sufficient chromium to undergo passivation, spontaneously forming a microscopically thin inert surface film of chromium oxide. This passive film prevents further corrosion. This alloy contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel.
The stainless steel alloys 304 are a part of the austenitic stainless steels.
Its excellent properties make them ideal for outdoor use:
- Resistance to corrosion.
- Prevents products’ pollution.
- Resistance to oxidation.
- Excellent formability.
- Easy to clean.
- High resistance and low weight.
- Good resistance and stability at cryogenic temperatures.
Sunbrella Upholstery fabrics are as versatile indoors as out due to the following properties:
- Colored all the way to the core so its original vibrancy lasts on and on.
- Repels liquids and dirty.
- Easy to clean, even using bleach.
- Smooth, warm and comfortable.
- No loss of color.
- Machine wash in cold water on the delicate cycle with normal amounts of mild laundry detergent...
