Commercial Stainless Steel Cleaning Guide

Commercial Stainless Steel Cleaning Guide
Watermark

Commercial environments demand pristine cleanliness, especially in areas like bustling kitchens found in bars, restaurants, and cafes. Stainless steel, a staple material in these settings, requires diligent upkeep to retain its shine and durability amidst heavy use.

About Stainless Steel:

Stainless steel, renowned for its corrosion resistance, finds widespread use in appliances, utensils, and surfaces due to its durability. It consists of various steel types, all containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium, which reacts with oxygen to form a protective layer against rust and stains.

Interior Cleaning:

In commercial kitchens, stainless steel surfaces and appliances are prone to accumulating grease and grime rapidly. Promptly address spills to prevent stubborn buildup. Daily cleaning with mild soap and warm water is generally effective, avoiding abrasive cleaners that can scratch the polished surface. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry to prevent tarnishing. For textured finishes, use a soft nylon brush to remove trapped dirt. Fingerprints on mirror-polished surfaces can be removed with glass cleaner.

Exterior Maintenance:

Beyond kitchen settings, stainless steel features prominently in external structures like wall claddings and door handles. Regular maintenance is crucial, particularly in coastal areas prone to salt air corrosion. Monthly washing is recommended to minimize salt deposits and preserve the steel's strength and appearance. Harsh chemicals, oil-based cleaners, and metal bristle brushes should be avoided, as they can damage the surface and promote rust.

Handy Tips:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals like hydrochloric or hydrofluoric acid, as well as oil-based cleaners.
  • Refrain from using metal bristled brushes or steel wool pads to prevent rust stains.
  • If necessary, opt for ammonia-based cleaners over chlorine-based products, as chlorine can damage the protective chromium layer.
