CORTEN STEEL CONTAINERS

Corten steel containers are shipping containers manufactured from a special compound of steel developed to give the best protection around against the elements - short of keeping the container indoors! Trademarked as COR-TEN, but more commonly known as weathering steel because of its resistance to atmospheric corrosion compared to other steels. Because shipping containers are constantly exposed to the atmospheric weathering, including sea water, without added protection they would very quickly turn into old rust buckets!
The science behind weathering steel


Corten steel containers are in good company with many high profile bridges and outdoor sculptures also made from corten steel. The Angel of the North is a fine example of an outdoor corten steel structure.
Great for shipping and storage
