Stainless Steel and Glass Balustrades that suit all Architectural Designs

Since the incorporation of Steel Studio International, our team of professionals have been establishing exceptional, long term business relationships with building contractors, architects, quantity surveyors and developers locally and internationally. Our stainless steel balustrades and glass balustrades as well as staircases are well known in the commercial building industry and are specified as part of the architectural design of commercial projects in South Africa and other countries.

Over the years our team of sales people have educated professionals in the commercial building industry on the benefits of using stainless steel, as opposed to other steel products, as the material of choice for the steel balustrades on their projects.

Why architects, developers and quantity surveyors are selecting stainless steel as the material of choice for steel balustrades on commercial projects.

Architects are cleverly using stainless steel in their architectural designs because of its appearance, strength and high corrosion resistance. Stainless Steel is finding increasingly wide use in architecture for both exterior and interior applications.

Stainless Steel is playing an important role in sustainable design and alternative energy evolution. Ultimately, the most environmentally friendly materials are corrosion resistant, durable and have high recycled content and provide long service life and reduce resource use. Stainless steel provides all of these benefits. If the correct grade of stainless steel is selected for the steel balustrades, handrails or staircases on a project, it should last the life of the structure. Architects are now specifying stainless steel as the material of choice on commercial projects for these valuable characteristics.

Although stainless steel only became available to designers in the mid 1920's, it has had a tremendous impact on international design on commercial buildings. Stainless steel has provided up to 80 years of service in high profile architectural projects without appearance deterioration or metal replacement. When properly selected, fabricated and maintained, it should last the life of the structure, even if that life extends over centuries.

Architects, developers and quantity surveyors are selecting our stainless steel balustrades for their architectural designs, because they grasp that by using stainless steel, the long term cost benefit and long life cycle surpasses the benefits of using any other material on their project. Stainless steel is consistently on of the most environmentally friendly metals commonly used in construction.
