Not all labs are the same. Some have basic requirements. Some have electrostatic dissipative (ESD) requirements. Some have clean room requirements. Also, there are other laboratories that require sterilization or microbiological protection for the work they do. These laboratories require specialized laboratory furniture. In these laboratory environments, Stainless Steel lockers and furniture are the "go-to" options. Why? Because stainless steel has unique properties that make it a perfect fit. Let's take a look at the top 4 benefits:

　　1. Bacterial and fungal resistance

　　Stainless steel provides a non-porous laboratory work surface, so no liquids, bacteria, fungi or mold can penetrate it. This means bacteria, fungi, and dirt have nowhere to hide. With routine hygiene measures, the risk of bacterial transmission or cross-contamination is significantly reduced.

　　2. Moisture resistance

　　Stainless steel is made of mild steel composed of chromium and nickel. Chromium makes it resistant to rust and corrosion. Since rust is not a problem, moisture is not a problem. This means stainless steel is ideal for wet labs, sinks and intense liquid-based sterilization processes.

　　3. Chemical resistance

　　Stainless steel has remarkable chemical resistance. Most salts, organic chemicals, solvents, and biological stains are not a problem. Some acids and bases are also not a problem. Some harsh acids (acetic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid) and bases (sodium hydroxide) are not recommended for stainless steel.

　　4. Heat resistance

　　Nickel in stainless steel makes it heat resistant. It can withstand continuous heat exposure above 1500 °F. There may be some discoloration with prolonged high heat, but "it can absorb heat". This means that stainless steel is ideal for laboratories using open-flame equipment, such as a Bunsen burner.
