Over the course of 2 to 12 months, your Corten Steel will change from its initial appearance of grey high-grade steel to an excellent patina which has tones of orange, brown and red.

Each Pond is ready to be filled when it arrives – you can use collected rainwater which is an environmentally friendly solution or using a hose pipe.

Corten Steel Rectangle Garden Ponds can serve several practical and aesthetic purposes in outdoor landscaping and garden design:

1. Water Feature: One of the primary uses of a Corten steel Rectangle garden pond is as a water feature. The pond can be designed to hold water, creating a tranquil focal point in the garden. The sound of running water can add a soothing ambience to outdoor spaces.

2. Decorative Element: Corten steel has a distinctive appearance characterised by its rusty patina. The Rectangle-shaped pond can serve as a striking decorative element, adding a modern and industrial aesthetic to the landscape. The contrast between the weathered steel and the surrounding greenery or other landscaping features can be visually striking.

3. Wildlife Habitat: Depending on the size and design, Corten steel Rectangle ponds can provide a habitat for aquatic wildlife such as fish, frogs, or water plants. This enhances biodiversity in the garden and attracts wildlife, contributing to a more natural ecosystem.

4. Reflective Surface: Water surfaces can reflect sunlight and surrounding plants, creating dynamic patterns of light and shadow. This reflective quality can enhance the overall atmosphere of the garden, especially during sunny days.

5. Integration with Plants: Corten steel Rectangle ponds can be incorporated into garden designs that feature aquatic plants or water-loving species. The contrast between the steel and greenery can be visually appealing and provide a unique planting opportunity.

6. Functional Art Piece: Beyond its practical uses, a Corten steel Rectangle garden pond can be considered a piece of functional art. It adds sculptural interest to outdoor spaces and can be customized to complement the overall design theme of the garden.

7. Seasonal Interest: The appearance of Corten steel evolves over time as it continues to weather and develop its rust-like patina. This dynamic quality means that the Rectangle pond's visual appeal changes with the seasons and can adapt to different garden styles.

Corten Steel is a striking and contemporary design choice used for Outdoor Garden Ponds – known for its weathered appearance and rust-like patina, Corten Steel adds a unique aesthetic to outdoor spaces. Here are some steps and considerations for building a Corten steel Rectangle garden pond:

1. Corten Steel: Corten steel, also known as weathering steel, is designed to develop a rust-like appearance when exposed to the elements. This natural weathering process not only adds character but also provides a protective layer that helps prevent further corrosion. Ensure you choose high-quality Corten steel for durability.

2. Design and Dimensions: Determine the size and shape of your Rectangle garden pond based on your available space and aesthetic preferences. The Rectangle shape can be modern and minimalist, fitting well with contemporary landscaping.

3. Construction: Custom-made and constructed of 3mm heavy duty corten steel and coated interior faces of the Rectangle ponds with polyurea spray to prevent pond water from getting contaminated when the patina bleeds. Hand-crafted and using advanced laser cutting procedures by highly experienced and trained craftsmen and fabricators.

4. Installation: Zero assembly required for a simple and easy installation in your area.

5. Landscaping Around the Pond: Enhance the visual impact of your Corten steel Rectangle pond by incorporating suitable landscaping elements. Consider surrounding the pond with decorative rocks, gravel, or plants that complement the rustic appearance of Corten steel.

6. Maintenance: While Corten steel develops a protective patina, it's essential to monitor the pond's condition over time. Regularly inspect the liner for damage and address any signs of corrosion on the steel surface. Periodically clean the steel with a gentle solution to maintain its appearance.
