Finding the right waste collector using pictograms – the customer orientation guide for ashtrays/ash containers and waste collectors will tell you how.

Non-magnetisable chrome nickel steel and magnetisable chrome steel are labelled as non-rusting stainless steel, as they have a chrome component of at least 12 %.

Non-rusting stainless steel is corrosion resistant due to a passive layer, which forms on the surface of the metal when it is exposed to oxygen. The oxygen available in the air is sufficient for this. If this passive layer is damaged by mechanical stress or chemically destroyed, and reformation is also inhibited by a lack of oxygen, this will result in corrosion damage - even on stainless steel. Furthermore, non-rusting stainless steel is also not entirely resistant to some chemical compounds. Such compounds include hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and caustic soda.

In certain conditions and over the course of time, heavy layers of dirt which contain chlorous salts or extraneous rust can lead to discolourations or corrosion on the surface of the steel.
