Notes on stainless steel (risk of corrosion!)
● Please note! Even high-quality stainless steel can corrode if handled improperly. Salt, acids, chlo
rine, iodine and food residues destroy the protective coating and can result in corrosion and pit
ting, also with high-quality stainless steel!
● The stainless steel surface creates a new protective coat immediately after damage, but only if air
or oxygen-rich water has time to react with the surface.
● If residues, e.g. lime, protein or starches are not completely removed, air or oxygen-rich water is
prevented from getting to the stainless steel surface. A protective coating can thus not be formed
resulting in corrosion e.g. pitting damage, even on high-quality stainless steel. Therefore, clean
thoroughly to prevent any residues from sticking.
