Inox is a term used to refer to stainless steel. It is a collective, colloquial term for a steel-based material developed over 100 years ago, which has high resistance values against corrosion and acids. Inox represents a number of chrome-nickel steels (stainless steel) to which other elements are also added. It is known as inox in French and some other languages.
Stainless steel, or inox, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains at least 10.5% chromium and usually nickel, and may also contain other elements, such as molybdenum, titanium, and copper.
Inox is widely used in various industries such as the food industry, medical and pharmaceutical technology, sanitary and swimming pool construction, as well as in architecture and design due to its hygienic properties, resistance to corrosion, and attractive appearance.
In conclusion, inox is essentially another name for stainless steel, and both terms refer to the same material, which is an alloy of iron with high resistance to corrosion and rusting due to the presence of chromium and other elements.
