Durable: First of all, since the oxidation on the surface of corten steel will not corrode the interior of the material, the corten steel sculpture will have a long service life even if it is placed in a public space. Unlike the destructive modifications found on most metal materials, this protective layer protects the corten steel sculpture from further corrosion and is able to withstand harsh environments.
Low-maintenance cost: Likewise, since the surface of corten steel automatically forms a protective layer, it means that little maintenance is required. If the surface of a corten steel sculpture is scratched or damaged, the protective layer will heal itself over time, further reducing the need for maintenance.
Strong plasticity: Corten steel material has strong plasticity and can be designed into a variety of public sculptures in different styles. It is relatively simple and easy to mold into a shape with rich development and changes, and can maintain an excellent integrity.
Unique appearance: The protective rust produced by corten steel has a unique reddish-brown appearance that is particularly popular with architects and design engineers. When combined with the creative thinking of artists, it can produce a variety of attractive public landscape sculptures.
Cost-effective: In addition to simple maintenance, the price of corten steel sculpture is relatively lower than sculptures made of other materials, so the overall cost will be relatively low, making it an excellent choice for people who pursue cost-effectiveness.
Environmentally friendly: Corten steel can be said to be an environmentally friendly material, and its durability reduces the need for frequent replacement and subsequent resource consumption. And the oxide layer on the surface of corten steel eliminates the need for any paint or protective coating.
