Stainless Steel Bread bin

These stainless steel bread bins can be supplied with different types of finish such as, brushed finish, matte finish, and highly polished finish to resemble chrome for a decorative finish.

In metallurgy stainless steel, also known as inox steel or inox from French "inoxydable", is defined as a steel alloy with a minimum of 10.5 or 11% chromium content by mass. Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel, but it is not stain-proof. It is also called corrosion-resistant steel or CRES when the alloy type and grade are not detailed, particularly in the aviation industry. There are different grades and surface finishes of stainless steel to suit the environment to which the material will be subjected in its lifetime. Stainless steel is used where both the properties of steel and resistance to corrosion are required.

Stainless steel differs from carbon steel by the amount of chromium present. Carbon steel rusts when exposed to air and moisture. This iron oxide film (the rust) is active and accelerates corrosion by forming more iron oxide. Stainless steels contain sufficient chromium to form a passive film of chromium oxide, which prevents further surface corrosion and blocks corrosion from spreading into the metal's internal structure.

An example of a popular stainless steel bread bin can be found with the Brabantia Matt Stainless steel bread bin.

Wooden Bread bins

Wooden Bread bins

Wooden bread bins have been around for hundreds of years, well before people started to use enamel bread bins or stainless steel bread bins. People used wooden bread bins to store their bread so it could be stored safely away from pests and to reduce moisture build up in the bread. With the new found popularity of people choosing bread bins for their kitchens, wooden bread bins are also making a popular comeback in many kitchens both modern and traditional.

Many people choose wooden bread bins if they want to add a touch of tradition in their kitchen, as their design compliments a natural, earthy feel instead of stark, stainless steel appliances which detract from the comforting aura which can pervade traditional kitchens. Your kitchen is one of the most important rooms of the home, from friendly gatherings to intimate family dinners so choosing the right wooden bread bin can help make your kitchen more interesting.

Many wooden bread bins are manufactured in a whole heap of high quality materials including solid beech, natural hevea wood, acacia wood and rubber wood. These natural wood materials offer a great feature and appliance for any kitchen.

Wooden bread bins are also made from sustainable wood sources so you can protect the environment, as every year an area half the size of the UK is cleared of natural forests: temperate and tropical, North and South and on every continent. These forests, which once covered half of the planet, are irreplaceable and their loss has profound economic, social and environmental impacts.

Wooden bread bins vary in size and designs, from extra large bread bins to traditional farm house designs and more modern contempory designs.
