Corten steel signs provide an antique, rusted look

At AHL CORTEN, we are pioneers in manufacturing rusted corten steel signs. The reason why we choose corten steel is because corten steel signage offer an industrial, antique style and give rustic look.

Also known as “weathering steel” or Cor-ten steel, corten is a brand name for alloy steels which are developed to be weather resistant even without paint. The orange patina generated from the surface of weathering steel can protect the steel from further corrosion.

How do I maintain my corten steel sign?

Weathering steel signs typically require little maintenance and can last for decades. For daily cleaning of corten steel signs, you can use a soft brush or cloth to scrub, and then rinse with water.

The surface of weathering steel signs forms a protective layer of rust protection when exposed to the elements, which inherently helps prevent deeper rust from forming and maintains the strength of the steel. If you want to speed up the rusting process, a simple solution of vinegar, salt, and hydrogen peroxide can do the trick. However, it is important to note that this is not required and may not apply to all weathering steel signage.
