Stebro is Swiss I believe



And the North American outlet is Canadian.

Modern exhausts are made from aluminized steel, not galvanized. Service life for aluminized steel is about 6 years in normal Canadian use (probably the harshest in the World) which makes stainless systems uneconomic. Stainless won't rust easily but will fatigue fracture. Aluminized steel is actually the best available material for exhaust systems when you do the cost versus service life calculations properly.

The old days of mild steel systems that rust through in three years or less are long gone for quality components.
