✅ Webinar | Storage and Handling of Stainless Steels
📅 25 August 2026, 11.00am AEST | 🎙️ Presented by Geir Moe

Are you confident your stainless steel is being handled and stored correctly?

Even the right grade of stainless steel can suffer damage, contamination or costly performance issues if it isn't properly identified, handled and stored throughout the supply chain.

Join us for ASSDA's upcoming webinar, Storage and Handling of Stainless Steels, where we'll explore practical guidance on:

✔ Understanding why stainless steel performs the way it does and the differences between the five stainless steel families
✔ Verifying materials on receipt and ensuring documentation matches what was ordered and delivered
✔ Identifying grades when material certificates or documentation have been misplaced
✔ Safe handling of sheets, tubing, long products and castings
✔ Preventing contamination during storage, transport and delivery
✔ Remedial actions when contamination occurs
✔ Safety considerations when handling and storing stainless steels

Whether you're involved in fabrication, distribution, project delivery or asset management, this webinar will provide practical insights to help protect material quality, minimise risk and avoid costly mistakes.
