Planters made with Corten Steel can make your landscape look natural, and they will continue to be bronzed over the years.AHL can help you determine if Corten Steel is the right material by sharing the benefits and limitations of using Corten. Made in China.

 

 

Weathering steel is a kind of structural steel. This makes it an extremely durable material for use as a seeding machine. The slow rate at which Corten oxidizes gives it a unique aesthetic that changes over time and thrives in all weather conditions. If you plan to install large Corten Steel planters, it is important to know that rusting runoff will flow onto the surface where you place them. Steel rusts. That's what steel does. That's what makes it such a beautiful material. Sealing steel will cause a regrettable maintenance headache. If you want maintenance-free rust resistant finishes for metal POTS, then manufacturing with aluminum and powder coated rust resistant finishes is the way to go.

 

 

 

 

Many materials attempt to replicate the rusty steel look, but only steel (weathering or mild steel) can provide the natural beauty that will continue to be bronzed. Why would you want something pretending to be something else when you can have the real thing. Another benefit of making Corten over pouring molds (such as fiberglass) is that you can have it in any size you want. Rectangles, cylinders, cubes, or anything you can imagine harvesting can be made to exact dimensions. Pre-manufacturing custom sized POTS will be made with detailed workshop drawings that can be changed. You have complete control over the appearance of the planter.
