With our retaining walls, you can always create the right shape. We have various dimensions, angles, and curves in stock. With the prefab system, you can easily connect the retaining walls seamlessly.
The powerful and warm appearance of the retaining wall is partly due to the orange-brown color of the material. This color is formed by a natural layer of rust. Another name for Corten steel is weathering steel: weather conditions have a positive influence on this planter.
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 layer of rust. This natural rust layer provides protection against further corrosion. This gives the planter a long lifespan.
