From sweet and salty soaps

Our customers deliberately choose stainless steel as a material. Because stainless steel combines elegance with high durability and stability. But now, after a short time, the supposedly 'rust-free' stainless steel product shows discoloration or rust stains? It is reasonable to assume that it must be a material or manufacturing defect. Why is my "rust-free" stainless steel product rusting? Of course, the manufacturer can make mistakes, but this is rare. Much more frequently, however, the cause is very simple: soap. Stainless steel has a passive layer that permanently protects the surface from corrosion. However, if this passive layer is destroyed, stainless steel is also susceptible. Contact with salts such as bromides, iodides and chlorides or ammonium further enhances the corrosive effect. Which soap can I use without hesitation? Due to the large number of soaps offered and constant changes in recipes, we unfortunately cannot give specific product recommendations. The soaps we offer can be used without restriction. If you want to use a third-party product, please check the ingredients carefully. Strong acids, bases, salts such as chlorides, bromides, iodides, etc. should not be included, as these can cause corrosion when in contact with stainless steel. If your soap dispenser is equipped with a tank lid, please be sure to use it. Evaporation of soap ingredients can create aggressive gas mixtures that can also have a corrosive effect. The right fastening Contact with base metals can also damage the passive layer. Pay particular attention to high-quality fastening materials such as stainless steel screws and washers.
