What is Corten Steel Cladding?
Corten steel cladding involves covering an exterior structure with Corten, a specialized weathering steel. This remarkable material is designed to develop a stable, rust-like protective patina on its surface when exposed to the atmosphere. This patina not only provides a distinctive, evolving aesthetic but also effectively resists atmospheric corrosion, eliminating the need for painting or additional protective coatings.
Ideal for structures that need to withstand harsh weather conditions or are hard to maintain, corten cladding shows excellent long-term performance. It’s a preferred choice for creating durable and iconic metal cladding solutions.
Benefits of Corten Steel Cladding
Choosing our Corten steel cladding for your project offers numerous advantages
- Exceptional Durability: Corten steel is incredibly strong and shows optimal performance for a long time, resisting weather and wear.
- Low Maintenance: The protective rust layer means Corten material needs less maintenance, saving costs and effort over the building’s lifespan.
- Distinctive Aesthetic Appeal: Corten metal cladding provides a unique, warm, and natural rusted look that evolves over time, adding character to any structure.
- Versatility: Our corten steel panels are versatile and can be used in diverse architectural projects, from large-scale steel facades to intricate corten steel jali designs.
- Cost-Effective & Environmentally Friendly: While the initial investment might be higher, the longevity and low maintenance make core 10 steel cladding material cost-effective in the long run. It is also 100% recyclable.

Is Weathering Steel Cladding Expensive?
Weathering steel cladding material can be approximately three times more expensive than ordinary mild steel. Thus, the upfront cost of purchase and installation for corten steel cladding is quite high. However, its significant advantage lies in its minimal maintenance requirements and high durability. These factors contribute to a lower overall corten steel cladding price over the lifespan of the structure, making it a sound long-term investment.

Corten Cladding Installation & Maintenance
- Expert Installation: Proper installation is key to performance. Corten Steel Tube can recommend experienced installers or provide guidance to your team. Key aspects include ensuring proper ventilation behind panels and managing water runoff during the initial weathering phase.
- Fixing Methods: Corten cladding can be attached using various methods, including visible or concealed mechanical fixings, cassette systems, or welded to a sub-frame, depending on the design and panel type.
- Minimal Maintenance: Once the protective patina has fully formed (typically 6 months to 2 years, depending on environmental conditions), Corten steel is virtually maintenance-free. Periodic inspection is advisable.
- Runoff Management: During the initial weathering period, some rust-coloured runoff can occur, which may stain adjacent porous surfaces. Design considerations (e.g., sacrificial surfaces, drainage) can mitigate this. Pre-weathering options from Corten Steel Tube can also help reduce initial runoff.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Corten Steel Tube typically supplies Corten cladding in thicknesses ranging from 2mm to 3mm for most facade applications. However, we can provide thicknesses up to 10mm or more for specific structural or aesthetic requirements. Thicker panels generally offer greater rigidity and longevity.
Attachment methods vary based on the system (e.g., rainscreen, direct fix). Common methods include mechanical fixings (screws, rivets) to a sub-frame, or interlocking panel systems. Overlap depends on the panel profile and system design, typically ranging from 25mm to 50mm for shingle-style installations, but can be different for cassette or face-fixed systems. We provide guidance based on your chosen system.
The patina typically starts forming within a few weeks of exposure and can take 6 months to 2 years to fully stabilize, depending on atmospheric conditions (humidity, pollutants, wet/dry cycles). Corten Steel Tube also offers pre-weathered options to achieve a mature look faster.
During the initial weathering phase, runoff containing iron oxides can stain adjacent porous surfaces like concrete or light-coloured stone. Proper design, detailing (e.g., drip edges, drainage channels), and selecting non-porous surrounding materials can manage this.
Corten metal cladding refers to an exterior (or sometimes interior) building finish made from Corten steel, also known as weathering steel. This specific type of steel alloy is designed to develop a stable, rust-like appearance when exposed to atmospheric conditions. This outer “rust” layer, or patina, is actually a protective barrier that inhibits further corrosion of the steel underneath, making it highly durable and low-maintenance.
While Corten performs well in many environments, high-salt coastal areas can accelerate corrosion beyond the formation of a stable patina. Specific project assessment is recommended. In such cases, higher grades of weathering steel or specific surface treatments might be considered.
