Features
Soothing and atmospheric: our corten steel pond is the perfect addition to gardens. The pond is suitable for planting plants and housing fish. This makes the pond a very dynamic part of the garden. Because we coat the inside of our Corten steel ponds with polyurea, the pond does not rust through. Additionally, our ponds are equipped with a fixed overflow pipe and can optionally be ordered with through-holes. You can choose between through-holes on the short or long side.
The color of Corten steel is orange-brown and is formed by a natural rust layer. Another name for Corten steel is weathering steel: weather conditions have a positive influence on the material.
Corten steel is a metal alloy consisting of iron, to which copper, phosphorus, silicon, nickel, and chromium have been added. When exposed to the outdoors, the material becomes covered with a protective rust layer. This natural rust layer provides protection against further corrosion. As a result, the ponds have a long lifespan.
Specifications
5-year warranty.
Customization is possible.
The inside is coated in black with polyurea. This ensures that the pond liner does not rust when water collects in it.
Corten steel ponds are wear-resistant, weather-resistant, low-maintenance, and durable.
The standard material thickness of the Corten steel is 3 mm.
Products are delivered unrusted. The rusting process of Corten steel takes approximately 4-5 months, depending on weather conditions.
Rust can be fixed by applying Owatrol. This is a penetrating anti-rust agent that forms a protective layer against rust. Owatrol protects and ensures that the Corten steel no longer stains.
