Manufacturing Process of Corten Planter Boxes
Cutting
Sheets of Corten steel are cut to size using laser cutting, plasma cutting, or water jet cutting.
Ensures precise dimensions and allows for custom shapes or patterns.
Bending / Folding
Press brakes or folding machines are used to form edges and corners.
Provides clean lines for rectangular or square planters.
Welding / Assembly
Pieces are joined using MIG or TIG welding.
Essential for structural strength, especially in larger planter boxes.
Drainage Preparation
Holes are added at the base to prevent water accumulation.
Supports healthy plant growth and prevents root rot.
Patina Formation
The steel is left to oxidize naturally, forming the characteristic rusted layer.
This patina protects the planter from further corrosion and enhances visual appeal.
Optional Finishing
Edges can be smoothed or rounded for safety.
Custom cutouts or decorative patterns can be added during cutting or welding.
