Superior Durability and Longevity
Unlike other types of steel or metals, Corten steel develops a protective rust layer or patina that protects the metal and prevents further corrosion, meaning it will withstand harsh weather conditions and last significantly longer.
Minimal Maintenance
Once the protective patina layer has developed on your Corten steel product, it needs virtually no maintenance! Other types of steel may need treating or repainting, but Corten steel continues to look stunning without effort!
Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal
Corten steel’s rich, earthy patina creates a unique, natural look that evolves beautifully over time. Blending seamlessly with any garden or setting, this visually striking element can’t be matched by other steels.

The bottomless design allows for the plants to take root to the soil underneath the planter. This will prevent plants becoming “pot bound” and provides plants access to moisture and nutrients from the soil beneath to make for a much healthier plant.

We may have started the weathering process for you. Planters could be delivered in various stages of the weathering process from new steel to full patina. All planters will develop a unique patina depending on various factors including: humidity, wind, amount and type of precipitation, and proximity to sea water.
Due to the natural weathering process as the natural patina develops you may experience “run off” from rainwater and watering may stain the surface the planter is placed upon. This a higher risk during the 1st 6 months of weathering.
