Caring for Stainless Steel Cutlery
The secret to caring for good quality cutlery is for everyone who handles and cleans 18 10 stainless steel cutlery to follow a few simple rules to help eliminate any potential problems.

• Always store stainless steel cutlery and silver cutlery separately.
• Salts from tap water can cause staining if cutlery is not wiped properly after washing.
• Detergents can also stain and to avoid this problem do not use too strong a solution.
• In hard water areas, chalky deposits can occur, a water softening device is recommended.
• Some other causes of staining are direct heat such as a hot plate or gas burner, or immersion in a sythetic vinegar, most stains can be polished off using a proprietary polishing preparation.
• To maintain maxiumum cutting edge of knives, do not leave them in water overnight as they receive as much exposure to corrosion as 3 to 4 months of ordinary use.

18 10 is an ‘austenitic’ stainless steel type and is the highest grade available. It contains 18% chromium, but has 10% nickel. This makes it highly resistant to staining, rusting and corrosion. Its durability, perfect lustre and resistance to strong detergents makes it ideally suited to today’s requirements of modern living, especially in the catering industry.
