bacterial on the surface of the sheet is greatly slowed and there
is a markedly lower population density than on traditional metals
like stainless steel. This makes copper an additional defense
against infections. Copper sheet metal can be used in kitchens as
work surfaces, splash backs, trims, push plates and kick plates.for
