Corten Steel Garden Screens: The Complete Guide

Corten steel garden screens have revolutionised outdoor design with their distinctive rustic appearance and industrial charm. These weathering steel panels combine contemporary aesthetics with remarkable durability, making them increasingly popular choices for modern garden designs across the UK.

What Is Corten Steel and Why Choose It for Garden Screens?

Corten steel (sometimes called weathering steel) is a group of steel alloys developed to form a protective rust-like appearance when exposed to weather conditions. Unlike ordinary steel, Corten contains specific elements like copper, chromium, and nickel that allow it to develop a stable rust layer that actually protects the metal beneath from further corrosion.

The oxidation process typically begins immediately upon exposure to the elements, with the characteristic burnt-orange patina developing within 3-6 months depending on your local climate. This natural aging process continues to evolve subtly over approximately 2-3 years until the protective patina fully stabilises.
