Offshore and coastal structures: EN 1.4404 is widely used on offshore platforms, drilling rigs and other marine infrastructure due to its extremely high corrosion resistance in salt water and chloride-rich environments.

Chemical Processing Plant: The enhanced corrosion resistance of EN 1.4404 makes it the preferred choice for equipment, pipes and vessels in chemical processing facilities where exposure to aggressive chemicals is present.

Drug and food processing: EN 1.4404 is commonly used in the construction of equipment, tanks and piping in the pharmaceutical and food processing industries, where corrosion resistance and cleanability of materials are crucial.

Marine and Coastal Infrastructure: EN 1.4404 stainless steel is used in the construction of piers, jetties, sea walls and other coastal infrastructure and provides long-term performance in harsh marine environments.

Architectural and Decorative Applications: EN 1.4404’s bright, uniform appearance and corrosion resistance make it a popular choice for architectural and decorative elements such as building facades, canopies and decorative hardware.

Low and high temperature applications: EN 1.4404 maintains its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at low and high temperatures, making it suitable for use in industries such as aerospace, petrochemicals and power generation.

Medical and Laboratory Equipment: The non-magnetic properties and corrosion resistance of EN 1.4404 make it suitable for use in medical equipment, laboratory equipment and other applications where these characteristics are important.

The combination of superior corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and versatile performance in a variety of environments makes EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L) stainless steel the first choice for a variety of industrial, commercial and professional applications.
