steelTalks is a series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. Throughout this webinar, it will become clear that stainless steels play a crucial role in enhancing safety and protection in everyday life. While widely used across industries and infrastructure, their economic and protective benefits often go unnoticed or underappreciated. Join us for our first webinar of 2025 as Tim Collins delves into the many ways stainless steels contribute to a safer, healthier future—and what we should all be thinking about to ensure long-term protection for ourselves and society.
