Stainless steel is no doubt one of the most used materials in industries. Regardless of the nature of the businesses, almost every industry depends on stainless steel products in some way or the other. The common facts that we all know about stainless steel remain its exquisite look, dependable durability, and corrosion-resistant properties. But there is more to it. Here are some of the interesting facts for stainless steel that might interest you as well. 

1. Steel Is Ancient

Steel Is Ancient

When we think of stainless steel, we often consider it to be a modern variety of alloys. In reality, the earliest trace of stainless steel is 400 years old. This proves that humans have been using this wonderful alloy for ages.  Over the last 1000 years, its usage has become widespread. But, its origin is way more ancient than we think. 

2. Steel Is Integral To Tin Cans

Steel Is Integral To Tin Cans

We all know that cold beverage is stored inside tin cans to avoid a reaction. But, do you know that all these tin cans contain a certain amount of steel in them? Studies have revealed that the food and beverage industry produces 200 million tin cans every year. Surely it is a staggering figure and substantiates the significance of stainless steel in today’s world. 

3. Daily Steel Production Is Huge

Daily Steel Production Is Huge

Another fact regarding stainless steel that might interest you is that the industries manufacturing stainless steel produce a whopping volume of steel every day. To be precise and accurate, cardinally, the volume of steel produced in a day can build 543 Eiffel towers. Surely you can imagine the volume exactly. One can easily imagine the amount of market demand for stainless steel from these figures easily.

4. Steel Industries Employ Plenty Of People

 Steel Industries Employ Plenty Of People

The stainless steel industry is surely one of the thriving industries we have. With its ever-increasing demand in the market, the industry is growing every day. Therefore, it employs a considerable amount of people all over the world, belonging to different walks of life. From skilled labourers to efficient managers, you will find every variety of people working under this umbrella industry. More than 8 million people work in this industry. 

5. The Modern Steel Is Better

Every alloy improves over time as science and technology upgrades. Similarly, stainless steel has also evolved over time. Today, the SS tubes are way more efficient, withstanding extreme conditions, and stronger than they were earlier. The modern innovations in metallurgy have made this up-gradation possible. Also, you will find a wide variety of steel grades available to match different requirements. 

6. Steel and Automobile

Steel and Automobile

Ever since the appearance of the first steel automobile in the year 1918, the association between automobile and steel has only strengthened. This century-old relationship exists with no hassle in between. Over the years, the use of steel has become mandatory for making automobile and auto parts. Therefore, the automobile manufacturing industry depends on the steady supply of steel to a great extent. 

7. Steel and Structural Strength

Steel and structural strength go hand in hand. But the first time we realised that the relationship is stronger than we think is when in 1885, the first skyscraper got erected using stainless steel equipment and products. The Home Insurance Building stands today as the evidence of the strength and durability stainless steel can lend to any structure. Today, almost 50% of the total steel goes into the construction sector alone. 

8. Steel Is Recyclable

Stainless steel is one of the materials that can be recycled several times. Most of the steel you buy from the market belongs to the recycled category. In general, steel, once manufactured, can be recycled for up to 150 years. This is what makes steel one of the most sustainable and eco-friendly choices for industries. 

9. Steel Is Less Heavy

 Stainless steel is strong and durable without any doubt. But, people often think that anything that comes with these two qualities is hefty as well. It is undoubtedly not true for stainless steel. No matter its strength and sturdiness, it weighs considerably less. Therefore, the construction industry uses this material without any worries. 

10. Steel and Refrigerator

Once, refrigerators also had a substantial amount of steel in them. Even though modern refrigerators are made differently, the refrigerator manufactured before 2001 has almost 100 pounds of steel. Hence, the steel used to cater to the FMCG product manufacturing sector considerably. 

 11. Steel And Seat Belts

One of the most surprising facts about stainless steel is that even seat belt production needs steel. No matter how weird it may sound, stainless steel indeed finds its application even in the industries that manufacture automobile parts and gears such as seat belts. 

12. Golden Gate Bridge

 Who does not appreciate the beauty and splendour of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francesco? It took 83000 tons of steel to make this bridge. The stability, aesthetic beauty, and structural integrity of this magnificent evidence of modern architecture would not have been possible without the support of this colossal volume of steel. 

13. Steel and Home Security

It is the strength of stainless steel that ensures the safety of every premise. No matter if you are thinking of doors, locks, frames, or railings, stainless products always come with the guarantee of complete security. 

14. Steel Is Stronger Than Many

Steel Is Stronger Than Many

Declaring steel to be a strong material would be an understatement. It indeed is one of the strongest in the world. When it comes to the strongest materials for construction in the world, stainless steel surely comes in the first few that top the chart. 

15. Research and Development

Every year, a considerable amount of money goes into the research and development of stainless steel to make the products more durable and useful. Over $10 billion has already made its way into the R&D channels of stainless steel that aim at making higher-quality steel materials. 

Stainless steel indeed is a wonder material. In the coming years, the world would only witness a surge in demand for steel products. Hence, steel products would emerge as indispensable for all the industries.
