Stainless steel worktables can withstand heavy everyday use and they are easier to clean than most other types of worktables. Unlike tables made of materials such as wood, aluminum, plastic and ceramic, stainless steel tables are highly resistant to corrosion, odors, stains and rust. The thickness of stainless steel is measured by its “gauge”. A smaller number means a thicker sheet of stainless steel. The factors that determine a table’s strength are welding, bracing, and the reinforcing of its shelves and tops. There are many different accessories that can accompany worktables. Backsplashes prevent liquids from spilling back behind worktables. Undershelves and overshelves increase kitchen storage space and keep items off of the floor. Shelves held to the table legs with clamps eliminate nuts and bolts and allow height adjustments. Drawers can be used for storing cooking utensils and other small items. Other accessories may include a built-in sink and faucet, enclosed bases with sliding or hinged doors, pot racks and cutting boards. Casters may be attached to the table legs for easy transport. Worktables can be designed to fit any work space and modified to meet your commercial kitchen needs.
