What is Corten steel?

Qu'est-ce que l'acier Corten ?

Corten steel is a fascinating material with unique properties that set it apart from traditional steel. It offers up to 8 times greater corrosion resistance, making it ideal for outdoor use. What makes Corten steel particularly interesting is the patina that forms through oxidation, giving the steel its characteristic warm brown colour. This patina evolves over time and provides long-lasting protection.

The best part: scratches and minor damage repair themselves, because the patina is continually reformed. Over time, your Corten steel panel not only becomes durable, but also increasingly attractive. Corten steel is therefore an excellent choice if you are looking for a material that is both robust and aesthetically pleasing.

Why choose Corten steel for outdoors?

Weather resistant

Corten steel is resistant to all weather conditions, whether it rains, shines or snows. It is perfect for outdoor use and maintains its stability and aesthetics for many years.

Unique appearance

The rusty patina that forms over time gives each piece a warm, natural aesthetic that stands out from other materials. Each piece thus becomes unique.

Self-repairer

In case of minor damage, a new protective layer is automatically formed. The patina regenerates, which means that your Corten steel product always remains well protected.

Sustainable

Corten steel is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice. So you are not only opting for sustainability, but also for ecological sustainability.
