Why is brass not used more if it self sanitises ?

494 views

I’m getting my kitchen redone & want to know why copper alloys like brass isn’t used more. It seems perfect for counter space and prep areas with its self sanitation properties.
Am I missing something bc I’m stupid or maybe just ahead of the curb ?

A copper or brass doorknob will over time get a build up of crud from dirt, hand oils, etc that will negate the sanitizing properties. My office building has old brass handles on most doors, and the crud on them has been around since the 70s.
