FINISHES
EverEdge products can be specified in a variety of finishes to blend in with, or stand out in, any design.
CorTen Steel
CorTen is designed to rust but, unlike mild steel, not break down. A layer of rust forms around the raw steel underneath, effectively protecting it from further weathering. Most CorTen steel products will be supplied in their raw steel form and will take up to 5 months to form the rusty patina which will give the reddy, orange finish. No rusty pattern is identical to another so every CorTen steel item will have a completely unique finish.
Powder Coated
All EverEdge products can be powder coated in a variety of colours to match virtually any design. Powder coating is a process where a heavy duty polyester powder is sprayed onto the steel before it is baked in a very hot oven, a process that bonds the powder to the steel.
Hot Dip Galvanised Steel
Mild steel can be treated with a layer of zinc to protect it from weathering. Zinc is made up of a number of properties which prevent it from oxidising making it the ideal material to coat and protect mild steel.
Mild Steel
Mild steel is the raw form of steel as it comes out of the mill. It is untreated and will rust over a period of time. All conditions are different but, depending on the thickness of the material used, on average mild steel will last between 5 – 8 years.
