Who Sells Stainless Steel Components?

Standards and Specs
SPLASH is an alliance of suppliers, fabricators, equipment manufacturers and two non-profit metals associations.

It is our goal  to have wrought and cast stainless steels accepted by communities for use in the storage and distribution of potable water throughout the U.S.

To help us achieve this goal, we are working with the relevant authorities to develop industry specifications and standards for the use of these materials in the water industry.
