Why use the cor-ten steel as the cladding facade?

The First reason, cor-ten steel is a kind of low alloy high strength steel with some alloying elements and good corrosive properties.

The weathering and anti-corrosion property of Corten-A is 5~8 times as high as common steel. At the same time, Cu, P and other trace elements enrichment of Cor-ten steel form a layer of dense amorphous rust layer of tissue. This tissue could prevent further corrosion of steel to some extent.

The Second reason, The rust layer will become stable.

Forming chocolate color on the cor-ten surface, very solid with the matrix to prevent further corrosion of the base metal. And the cor-ten steel cladding color of rust will undergo a series of change processes from light yellow, orange red, rust red, bronzing and dark bronzing to record history. Which is most of architectural designer want to acquired design idea to express the feeling of longer history and leaving the trace of history. Like Australian museum, Memorial tower in Sapporo, etc.

The third reason, The cor-ten steel cladding facade surface color can be customized to much colors which you want by man-made.

That mean architectural designer can choose the building cladding of facade color according the used of construction, surrounding environment, Architectural style etc. Like if want to express freshly and lively feeling, then I think the light yellow colour of cor-ten effect can help you. If want to show solemnity and calmnity, the dark bronzing is a better choose. Also can mix and match to achieve the desired effect.

And can achieve high-precision carving into drawing, image, characters... Like the PALAZZO DI VIGONOVO “CAMPIELLO” – CORTEN APARTMENTS which is made by the sculptor George Mirani who carves letters on the surface of Cor-ten steel cladding for facade, the carefully selected rich character and symbols make the surface extremely rich in content, while achieving aesthetic and cultural harmony.
