Stainless steel has its perks.
When the design was awarded, a lot of emphasis was placed on the stainless steel material. Stainless steel was chosen because of its exceptional mechanical properties: aside from its unique appearance, it is highly durable, light-weight and corrosion and weather resistant, requires less maintenance and provides reduced life-cycle costs.
