European Stainless Steel Flat Bar

We manufacture large process equipment. We have some that will be going to Europe. As such it has been determined that we should follow EN 1090-2. Part of the structural framing is stainless steel. EN 1090-2 stipulates that stainless should conform to EN 10088-4 or EN 10088-5. I need 25mm thick x 150mm wide stainless bar to use as a cover plate. We, mistakenly I think, submitted RFQ's for EN 1088-4 bar with the appropriate material, etc. Only one company quoted and that was for EN 10088-3. I think we should have requested EN 10088-5 but it seems strange to me that no one asked, "Did you mean EN 10088-5?" Anyway, that's the long-winded background. I've spent all morning searching for this stuff with no luck. Most website do a piss poor job of telling you just what standards they adhere too. So, you folks that are accustomed to buying EN 10088-5 stainless steel bar for buildings (both of you). Where do you get it from?
