Corten Steel: Durable, Stylish, and Built for the Elements

Corten Steel, also known as weathering steel, is a high-strength material that forms a protective rust-like surface when exposed to the weather. This natural patina not only gives it a distinctive appearance but also acts as a shield against further corrosion, making it a smart choice for outdoor construction and design.

Builders and landscapers value Corten for its durability and low maintenance. Unlike painted or coated metals, Corten doesn't need ongoing treatments. Once the patina forms, it stabilises and protects the inner steel, meaning fewer touch-ups, no repainting, and long-term performance in harsh Australian conditions.

From retaining walls and cladding to garden edging and sculptural features, Corten brings both form and function to your project. Its bold, earthy finish adds architectural character while standing up to Melbourne's ever-changing climate.

Natural Choice for Timeless Outdoor Design

Corten Steel offers a unique combination of natural beauty and industrial strength. As it weathers, the steel develops a deep, rust-coloured finish that blends seamlessly into both modern and rustic outdoor spaces. This evolving patina gives Corten its signature look while ensuring long-lasting surface protection.

It's an ideal material for landscaping projects, architectural cladding, fencing, and outdoor furniture. Corten requires no painting or sealing, making it a sustainable choice with minimal maintenance over its lifespan. Its resistance to corrosion makes it especially suited for Melbourne’s variable weather conditions.

At Metfab, we work with builders, designers, and landscapers to supply Corten Steel that meets the highest standards. Whether you’re after clean, cut-to-size panels or custom fabrication, our team is here to help you create durable, standout features with confidence and ease.

Ordered a gate frame for our rental property. Great communication and great quality. Recommend!

Great place to pick up your steel as you need it. Also great for engineering jobs from small one off to large tenders. Pictured is a large steel job at their factory.

Trent Piribauer
Client

I'm a home hobbyist welder that has been using Metfab for all my steel supplies. The Staff are very knowledgeable and always willing to answer any questions I may have. They can cut any material to size and even wheel it out to your vehicle and help load it on. I don't think the serviced can be matched anywhere else. Happy customer!

Phil Kerr
Client

Requested a small job that required a few cuts of stainless steel sheet. No problem for Metfab who fitted the job in on short notice and a very reasonable price. Much appreciated! Nice job too!
