Corten steel is a particularly robust structural steel. The word "Corten" is the brand name for a weather-resistant steel alloy. When exposed to the elements, this steel forms an outer protective layer that protects it from corrosion.

The main advantages are:

Very high resistance to corrosion and weathering, up to 8 times greater than that of conventional steel, which makes it particularly suitable for natural oxidation outdoors when in contact with air. It then forms a protective layer that prevents any further rust.

In addition, this patina gives it a beautiful warm, brown color, the shade of which can vary over the years and depending on the exterior environment.

CorTen is often considered a “living” material that protects itself. Indeed, if its surface patina is damaged or scratched, it will oxidize again to create a new protection. This regeneration phenomenon can be repeated several times, thus guaranteeing constant protection.

Corten steel is a bit like a good wine: it takes good raw material and the best conditions for it to reveal its full potential. The rusty patina you are looking for develops over time, when the panel is exposed to the elements like water and sun. Over time, the patina on your panel will continue to form until it creates a protective layer that will cover the steel underneath.

Our Corten steel is a unique material, known for its rusty patina surface. It is an extremely resistant material that protects itself against corrosion. Thanks to natural oxidation outdoors, it forms a protective layer that prevents rust from spreading. This patina gives the steel a beautiful warm, brown color, which evolves over the years and regenerates each time the surface is damaged or scratched. Corten steel is 100% recyclable and offers a living and incomparable material, which is constantly changing.

Our stainless steel is a material known for its durability, longevity and hygienic properties. It is resistant to corrosion and impact, making it a very versatile material, used in many areas. Its shiny surface offers a timeless elegance that never goes out of style.

Brushed stainless steel is stainless steel with a unidirectional satin finish. It is made by polishing it with a fine brush on a belt or wheel that always moves in the same direction, then it is smoothed with a greaseless compound or a medium non-woven abrasive. This finish creates a visible grain, giving a matte appearance. It is often used in public places or outdoors for its resistance to corrosion. Unlike other steels, it does not rust and always keeps its beautiful silver shine.
