What is Corten Steel?

Corten steel has corrosion resistant properties and develops an outer layer patina over a time period of about 6-9 months. The material is able to control the rate at which oxygen reacts with the metal, slowing down corrosion. This protects the steel from additional corrosion, which makes it the perfect low maintenance addition to any garden.

Will I have to wait for my Corten Steel Planter to weather?
Corten steel will be delivered pre-weathered, which means the patina will have already formed.

Guidance

In the earlier stages of the patina building up, rust coloured run off may occur which can produce some staining. Therefore, try to avoid putting Corten steel planters onto porous surfaces and be aware of this initial effect.
