Weathering Steel Plate

Weathering Steel Plate, also known as corten steel, is a corrosion-resistant alloy that develops a protective rust layer when exposed to the elements. This high-strength steel is used in various applications, such as construction, bridges, outdoor sculptures, and architectural facades. Its distinctive orange-brown patina gives it a unique aesthetic appeal. Weathering steel plate offers durability, low maintenance, and the ability to withstand harsh weather conditions, including extreme temperatures, rain, and humidity. It is known for its self-healing properties, as the rust layer acts as a barrier against further corrosion. This sustainable material is favored for its longevity and ability to blend harmoniously with natural surroundings.
