Corten steel, a.k.a. weathering steel/ corrosion resistant steel, is a combination of alloys with enhanced corrosion rate compared to other structural steels. It has natural weathering properties where steel reforms after abrasions. It is characterized with high structural strength, recycled content, 100% recyclability, low solar reflection and low carbon content which means high flexibility. Benefits of using Corten steel include:
