Corten Steel vs Galvanised Steel, Which One is Right for You?
Both materials offer exceptional durability and looks, but the best choice depends on your garden’s style:
- Corten Steel: Develops a warm, earthy rusted patina over time, blending beautifully with natural rustic landscapes.
- Galvanised Steel: Offers a brighter, silver-grey finish, providing a contemporary, more polished feel with excellent corrosion resistance.
What is Patina?
Patina is the result of a natural oxidation process that occurs when metals like Corten steel are exposed to moisture and oxygen over time. This process forms a protective rust-like layer on the surface, which prevents further corrosion and enhances the steel’s durability.
Unlike regular steel, which rusts continuously and weakens over time, Corten steel’s patina acts as a self-sealing barrier, shielding the underlying metal from further decay.
Initially, the steel may appear bright orange-brown, but as the oxidation stabilises over several months to a few years, the patina deepens into a rich, earthy tone. This process is similar to how copper develops a green patina (like the Statue of Liberty), but in the case of Corten steel, it results in a striking rusted finish that adds character and longevity to garden planters.
PLEASE NOTE!
While Corten steel offers many benefits, there are a few considerations:
Runoff Staining: As it weathers, Corten steel may produce rust runoff that can stain nearby surfaces such as concrete, tiles, or decking. This effect reduces over time but should be considered when choosing a location.
Initial Weathering Process: The patina takes time to develop, and during this period, the steel may appear uneven in colour before fully stabilising.
Despite these minor considerations, Corten steel remains a low-maintenance, long-lasting, and visually appealing choice for planters.
Easy Installation & Low Maintenance
Steel garden ring planters are designed for hassle-free installation. They are made from the same material as our flexible steel garden edging, but formed into rings. Simply position the rings where needed, fill them with soil, and start planting. No stakes, complicated assembly, or special tools are required.
Maintenance Tips:
- Corten Steel: The rust-like patina protects against further corrosion, requiring little upkeep.
- Galvanised Steel: Occasional cleaning keeps its modern finish looking sharp.
