In marine environments, materials are constantly exposed to extreme conditions such as water salinity, humidity and temperature changes. For this reason, we find a numerous elements made of stainless steel:

  • Structures and handrails:

The main structures and handrails of cruise ships are made of stainless steel due to its resistance and capacity to withstand adverse marine conditions.

   

  • Kitchens and restaurants:

In kitchens and food service areas, stainless steel is the most commonly used material because of its hygienic properties, its ease of cleaning and its resistance to both high temperatures and chemical products. All this is essential in order to pass high hygiene standards.

  • Furniture and decoration:

It is widely used in cruise ship furniture and interior design because of its modern appearance, being durable and easy to maintain.

  • Safety components:

Emergency stairs, anchors and other safety components are made of stainless steel to ensure their integrity and functionality in emergency situations. At this point, it is worth mentioning its mechanical resistance, which allows the material to withstand impacts without deforming or breaking. You can imagine the value of these properties in cruise safety. 

Stainless steel requires less maintenance than other materials, which is crucial for cruise operators who need to minimise downtime and repair costs.

 

 

It is 100% recyclable,contributing to reducing the  environmental impact, an increasingly important consideration in the cruise industry. The luxurious and modern look of its finishes creates a unique visual experience for passengers.
