Stainless steel: durable, timeless and recyclable

For more than a century, stainless steel has been a preferred material in kitchens around the world. As one of the leading global purchasers of stainless steel for kitchen applications, Franke has refined its expertise over decades to create premium products that combine durability, hygiene and timeless design.

Franke stainless steel is made from high-quality chrome-nickel steel. Its polished finish creates a distinctive appearance that can be maintained over time with appropriate care. The material is resistant to rust, heat and many household acids, while its non-porous surface is easy to clean and helps support high standards of kitchen hygiene.

Stainless steel is also a recyclable material and can be recovered through established recycling streams where suitable collection and processing facilities exist.
