Why is it important to have easy clean on egress?

If you are a window manufacturer or specifier this is about providing your customer, the home owner, with a safe product. Windows provide a natural source of light and ventilation. They should also be designed to be safe to use and clean. The British Standards recommend that the window design and location should ensure that it is possible for cleaning to be carried out while standing on the floor, preferably without the need for a stepladder.
The facility to clean from inside the property a window designated as a “emergency means of escape” should not in any way inhibit its primary emergency function.

What is the difference between ferritic stainless steel and austenitic stainless steel friction hinges?

Quite simply the difference is in their level of corrosion resistance. Austenitic stainless steel contains a higher per centage of chromium and nickel than standard ferritic. It is this what gives austenitic products over 5 times the corrosion resistance of those manufactured from standard ferritic when tested in a neutral salt spray cabinet.

Is stainless steel environmentally “friendly”?

As a manufacturer, the biggest impact that you could have on the environment is to recycle as much as possible. As one of the UK’s biggest consumer of stainless steel, our recycling credential s are second to none. Stainless steel is a durable, eco-friendly, and low- maintenance material.
It is a material that is 100% recyclable. Half of all new stainless steel is made from recycled stainless steel. This makes it a very environmentally friendly material.
