CHARACTERISTICS:
Create a beautiful garden with the sleek lines of this pedestal. The pedestal is perfect for showcasing artworks, water bowls and fire bowls. The product is made of corten steel, giving it a bold, warm look that works well with the lush greenery in a garden. A real eye-catcher!
Corten steel has an orange-brown colour, the result of a natural rust layer. Another name for corten steel is weathering steel: weather conditions have a positive effect on this material.
Corten steel is a metal alloy made by adding copper, phosphorus, silicon, nickel and chromium to iron. When exposed to air, the material forms a protective layer of rust. This natural coating prevents further corrosion, so the pedestals will last for many years.
SPECIFICATIONS:
The rust can be fixed by applying Owatrol. This is a penetrating rust inhibitor that forms a protective anti-rust coating. Owatrol protects the planter and stops the rust on corten steel flaking off.
We do not recommend using corten steel within 2 km of a coastline. See our blog post “Corte Steel and Coastal Sites” for more info.
