WEATHER RESISTANCE – HOW IT WORKS

The atmospheric corrosion resistance of weather – resistant steel is based on the chemical composition of the steel.
Under the influence of weather conditions a dense protective patina layer composed of corrosion products is formed on the surface of the COR-TEN® steel. The protective layer (Patina) develops in approximately 18 months, at first, the protective layer is reddish brown but gains a darker hue with time.

The “Run off” (leaching) of COR-TEN® cladding will slow down and eventually stop entirely, However our cladding specialists will suggest the inclusion a small gutter in the cladding detailing to take the “run off”, or the installation of on-porous materials below the cladding.

SSAB (Ruukki) COR-TEN® is a registered trademark any other weathered steel product marketed as “COR-TEN” is an imitation.
