WHAT'S CORTEN STEEL?

Corten Steel, also known as 'Weathering Steel,' is utilized in high - end exterior architecture, and for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. Additionally, it leaves behind a beautiful, even colouring that darkens over the years.

Secondary paint systems, such as powder coating, quickly result in failure. Paint doesn't endure well outdoors - it cracks, allowing water to penetrate and rust to seep out. Opting for self - sealing Corten Steel is the path to achieving a long - lasting, excellent result.

WILL THIS DAMAGE MY TREE?

While any damage to a tree's bark can lead to potential infection, there haven't been any reports of damaged trees since Metalbird was introduced. In fact, arborists working with Metalbird believe that when the spike is driven firmly into the tree, the tree will seal around the hole to naturally protect itself.

Of course, if you prefer not to install your Metalbird in a tree, there's a whole world of posts, sheds, wooden walls, and fences to explore.
