The benefits of Anima Soulight stainless steel lamps

The search of more practical designs has become one of the most significant peculiarities of the modern interior decorating world. Every minor detail becomes fundamental to providing a great piece of home décor that can satisfy trends. So, it should not surprise us if, nowadays, even metals may have a decisive role in the creative process of an interior design project.

Just take as an instance Anima Soulight lamps.

As you can see in their online store, their products are mainly made of two materials: satin, a particular fabric used to remind the ancient Hindu customs, and stainless steel.

The choice of using this specific metal was not casual at all. It has, in fact, many beneficial properties that, as a result, make it be employed in several fields – from the minor surgical instruments used in healthcare to the most refined ornamentation of your house.

To understand why such material was used explicitly in the Anima Soulight project, we need to look at what compounds stainless steel first of all.

The chemical composition of stainless steel

Technically speaking, it is mainly iron with a small percentage of carbon – like any other steel. Then, there is a presence of chromium that is around 10,5% or more, plus other alloying elements, such as nickel, titanium, manganese, etc. Depending on the percentage of all these, we can have different types of stainless steel, like austenitic stainless steel (the most used in the market because the austenitic microstructure, with the high use of nickel, improves the corrosion resistance of the objects). 

This makes its mechanical features stronger than other metals in everyday situations. Stainless steel has, indeed, good weldability due to its high strength and ductility; secondly, it’s very efficient when it comes into contact with natural elements – such as air, water, or fire- that could typically ruin any other form of material with low maintenance in adverse circumstances. For example, the crystal structure is so resistant to high temperatures that the melting point of stainless steel is 800°C!

So, if you get an Anima Soul Light lamp, you will never have to worry about the corrosion resistance of its structure. In contact with the oxygen of air or water, the chromium content forms a natural chromium oxide layer (also called “passive film”) on the material’s surface. Stainless steel is a perfect corrosion-resistant alloy, and that is why you can decorate your beach house with Anima Soul Light lamps without worries.

However, let us offer you a suggestion: even though the structure of Anima Soul Light lamps is made of rustless steel, you should not put them in your bathroom because the humid ambiance can permanently damage the thread fibres anyway.

How easy it is to clean stainless steel and Anima Soulight lamps

Another benefit of stainless steel is that it can be cleaned very easily with just a solution treatment of water and soap. Not by chance, to wash your Anima Soulight lamp (except for the electrical part), you can immerse it in a mix of both, leave it there for 30 minutes, rinse it, and, in the end, let it dry naturally like it were one of your clothes. We guarantee that your lamp will be as good as new with a simple water treatment!

The perfect combination of aestheticism and sustainability in a simple material

The last two properties we would like to talk about stainless steel, and the advantage they both bring to the Anima Soul Light products, are: its aesthetic and its being the “green material” par excellence.

As far as it concerns the first point, this metal has many surface finishes. It is indeed pretty variable and unique, so it can be easily used for any aesthetic purpose.

But the peculiarity that stands out above all is how easy it is to recycle. Its recovery rate can reach almost 100%, making it one of the few materials to be infinitely recyclable, and this quality perfectly suits the primary goal of the Anima Soul Light project, which is to bring into the market sustainable lamps that stay unalterable over time and respect all the principles of modern green design.
