Brushed Stainless Steel is one of the most popular surface finishes used in architecture, interior design, kitchen equipment and product manufacturing. Known for its sleek, modern look and exceptional durability, brushed stainless steel is ideal for both functional and decorative applications. This finish is made by polishing the surface with fine abrasives, creating smooth parallel lines that look great and are resistant to fingerprints and scratches.
Whether you’re designing kitchen appliances, furniture, or architectural features, brushed stainless steel is a stylish and useful choice.. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it perfect for high-traffic areas or environments exposed to moisture. With finishes like Hairline, Satin, and No.4, there’s a brushed option for every project and style preference.

We start with 2B stainless steel, which has a smooth, shiny surface. The steel is then brushed with fine tools to create small lines, giving it a matte finish. After brushing, we clean the surface and apply a protective film. Finally, the steel sheets are packed and ready for shipping. This process makes the steel look better and more durable.
Once the stainless steel sheets are ready, they are carefully packed to prevent any damage during transport. We use strong wooden crates and protective film to keep the sheets safe. After packing, the sheets are quickly shipped, and we keep you updated at every step of the way.
