The Development History of Corten Steel

  Corten steel originated in the United States and is a representative steel grade of the Cu-P series in the United States. In the early 20th century, with the development of industry and the increasing demand for corrosion resistance of steel, American steel companies developed this type of steel with good weather resistance.

  After years of development and improvement, the production process and performance of Corten steel have been continuously optimized, gradually gaining widespread application worldwide.

  Nowadays, Corten steel has become a mature steel variety, playing an important role in multiple industries such as construction, bridges, and transportation.Its unique ability to form a self-protective patina not only enhances its durability but also adds an aesthetically pleasing, rustic appearance that has made it a favorite among architects and designers.
