The International Stainless Steel Forum (ISSF) has released a new video to mark the 100 years that have passed since stainless steel was first discovered and commercialized.
In addition to highlighting the history of stainless steel and its alloying elements, the video also features many applications for this remarkable material – from its beginnings 100 years ago until today. The video also addresses how and why demand for stainless steel has increased 10-fold in the 40 years since 1970, and why the industry’s long-term growth rate remains above 6%.
The video will be shown as part of the “100 Years of Stainless Steel” travelling exhibition which starts its journey around the world in Beijing, China, on 15 May. It will also be available on the dedicated 100 Years of Stainless Steel website – stainlesssteelcentenary.info.
The video was prepared by ISSF in partnership with members of the Team Stainless Network. Members of the Team Stainless Network include ISSF, Euro Inox, the International Chromium Development Association (ICDA), the International Molybdenum Association (IMOA), and the Nickel Institute.
