Aluminium and Stainless Steel Bar Counter? Station Deus Uses Both
Cocktail stations are not just for decoration; they are efficient work surfaces that allow bartenders to serve as many cocktails as possible in less time. Station Deus has always placed the work of the bartender at the center of every bar counter design. While the quality of service is evident at a glance, a closer examination is required to understand the quality of the construction. Station Deus delves into the details, explaining the reasons for choosing an aluminium and stainless steel bar counter.
Made in Italy, Even in Materials
L’acciaio inox e l’alluminio sono materiali utilizzati tantissimo nella produzione in molti settori. Entrambi i metalli, infatti, possiedono caratteristiche uniche che aiutano nella costruzione e nella durabilità dei prodotti. Station Deus utilizza entrambi, inserendoli nei particolari della cocktail station in base alle loro proprietà.
Why Choose a Cocktail Station Based on Materials?
The bar counter plays a central role in all services related to the serving of beverages and food. Essential for serving customers, the cocktail station is also crucial for having an organized and efficient work surface that reduces cocktail preparation time. Purchasing a bar station without considering the materials it is made from could signify a poor investment, where lack of quality and durability soon become apparent.
What Are the Differences Between Stainless Steel and Aluminium?
Stainless steel and aluminium are materials widely used in production across many sectors. Both metals possess unique characteristics that aid in the construction and durability of products. Station Deus utilizes both, integrating them into the specifics of the cocktail station based on their properties.
Advantages of Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a ferrous alloy that has high tensile strength, is very durable, and requires low maintenance. Heavier and stronger than aluminium, it does have a worse strength-to-weight ratio. Stainless steel is a poor conductor of electricity but has better heat resistance with a melting point of around 1400°C. Being non-porous, stainless steel is also more resistant to corrosion than aluminium.
Benefits of Aluminium
Aluminium is known for its good malleability and high ductility: it is lightweight and, thanks to its good conductivity, is an excellent electrical and thermal conductor. Although it is more expensive than stainless steel, it becomes more cost-effective when considering the price per volume, providing more product. Its resistance to rust makes it highly appreciated by those working with liquid products, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
Why Does Station Deus Use Both?
The aluminium tubes of Station Deus allow for reduced weight and greater resistance and durability, resulting in a structure that is light for frequent transport yet very solid, as it is tubular and thus resistant to heavy weights and shocks. The stainless steel tops offer excellent wear resistance: you can cut whatever you want on the work surfaces of your Station Deus, and the aesthetics of the steel and presentation to the customer remain captivating and timeless.
Environmental Impact: The Sustainability of Station Deus Materials
According to statistics, steel is the most recycled material in the world, while aluminium is the most recyclable. This is not a paradox: stainless steel retains its properties even during recycling, but aluminium can be recycled repeatedly, making every scrap valuable. Station Deus is aware of its choices that support the environment. And what do you choose?
