Corten steel has a high content of copper, chromium, and nickel which causes it to take on a characteristic reddish-orange color. This color varies in tone depending on the oxidation of the product, so it is not necessary to apply any other type of protection to the steel such as galvanic protection or painting. Corten steel is supplied in sheets of various sizes and thicknesses that are manipulated according to the finish to be provided. Currently it is used by architects, engineers, decorators, designers, landscapers, etc., since this material is continually changing during the oxidation process and due to the effect that light and atmospheric conditions produce on it.
