About the Materials and Construction
Built by hand in Brooklyn, NY by Planterworx, an industry leader in outdoor metalwork known for their outstanding designs and meticulous craftsmanship. All Planterworx planters are composed of recycled metals and have been designed to endure the test of time, both in stature and style. These Ranch planters are manufactured out of Corten® steel and provide warm rich textures not always associated with metal. Beautiful earthy hues complement any environment.
Initially Corten® steel was developed for bridge and skyscraper construction where a high tensile strength material was necessary with little or no maintenance. This steel alloy requires no painting and will form a stable rust-like appearance after continued exposure to the weather. The patina or rust acts as a protective barrier not penetrating or compromising the structural integrity of the material. Corten® Steel has a reactive patina period from 3 to 9 months depending on location and climate. Corten® steel produces carbon run off or staining to adjacent materials like stone and concrete. After the initial reactive period Corten® steel will cure and self seal with very little to no carbon runoff. To clean your planters, use fresh warm water once monthly or once weekly in a coastal environment to remove any environmental deposits.
