When material prices move, project confidence shouldn’t.
Rising copper price volatility is changing how engineers, contractors and installers think about material selection. Stainless steel systems offer a more stable, compliant, and future-focused alternative for commercial projects.
Material Price Stability Matters
Copper pricing is closely linked to global commodity markets, creating uncertainty between design, tender, and installation. For commercial projects, this volatility can introduce unnecessary financial and programme risk.
Stainless steel offers greater predictability
- Reduced exposure to price fluctuations.
- Improved budget confidence at the tender stage.
- Fewer re-pricing discussions during construction.
Stainless isn’t about being cheaper, it’s about being predictable.
Compliance you can rely on.
Not all stainless systems are the same. Certification plays a critical role in reducing approval risk and ensuring compliance across the project lifecycle.
Why having CodeMark matters
- Confirms compliance with the Building Code
- Independently assessed and verified
- Simplifies approvals and inspections
KE KELIT’s STEELOX stainless press system is CodeMark certified, providing confidence from specification through to installation.
Flexibility that adds real value.
