Corrosion resistance is a crucial factor to consider when searching for a long-lasting and hygienic cleaning solution. Recently, KnitMesh Technologies, the leading innovator in knitted wire mesh technology, conducted a rigorous trial to compare the corrosion resistance capabilities of their Steel Scouring Pad against a leading competitor.
The Experiment
Identical bowls of tap water were used to semi-immerse both the KnitMesh Technologies Steel Scouring Pad and the competitor’s equivalent to maintain equal testing conditions. Both pads underwent the same environmental exposure during the seven-day experiment. After complete evaporation of the water, marked differences between the two pads were evident.
The Results
The results of the experiment highlighted the exceptional corrosion resistance properties of KnitMesh Technologies‘ Steel Scouring Pad. The pad showed only tiny rust spots, whereas the competitor’s product exhibited rust degradation across its total surface area. The experiment clearly showcased the superiority of KnitMesh Technologies‘ pad and its resistance to degradation. The competition’s pad’s susceptibility to corrosion could easily result in reduced levels of hygiene and the surface contamination of cookware. The potential contamination of food prepared using the adversely affected products can easily be avoided by ensuring kitchen staff use only the Steel Scouring Pads available from KnitMesh Technologies.
The Importance of Corrosion Resistance
The results of this experiment underline the importance of corrosion resistance in cleaning solutions. Corrosion compromises a pad’s structural integrity, shortening its lifespan and putting users at risk. Rust and corrosion can contaminate food and compromise the safety and quality of cooking utensils and other products that interact with the pad. KnitMesh Technologies‘ Steel Scouring Pad’s exceptional resistance to corrosion ensures longevity while also guaranteeing the safety and quality of the products used alongside it.
About KnitMesh Technologies‘ Scouring Pads
KnitMesh Technologies provides a comprehensive range of Scouring Pads, utilising their proprietary knitted wire mesh technology, that are designed to suit a wide range of cleaning applications. Their Steel Scouring Pad is a premium cleaning solution, manufactured using high-tensile carbon steel wire and coated with a high-specification galvanised zinc coating. This superior manufacturing process results in a longer-lasting, more efficient scouring experience. With enhanced abrasion and rust resistance, these pads surpass their traditional steel counterparts, making it easier to tackle even the toughest cleaning tasks with ease.
For applications requiring a delicately gentle touch, KnitMesh Technologies offers Copper Scouring Pads. Engineered to provide a gentler scouring action, these pads are ideal for cleaning tasks involving sensitive coatings or tight-tolerance injection moulding tools. By using these copper pads, users can achieve thorough cleaning results without compromising the integrity of delicate surfaces.
