Weathering steel is a group of steel alloys which were developed to obviate the need for painting, and form a stable rust-like appearance if exposed to the weather for several years. Weathering steel has increased resistance to atmospheric corrosion when compared to other steels. It eesists the corrosive effects of rain, snow, ice, fog, and other meteorological conditions by forming a coating of dark brown oxidation over the metal, which inhibits deeper penetration and negates the need for painting and costly rust-prevention maintenance over the years. In simple terms the steel is allowed to rust and that rust forms a protective coating that slows the rate of future corrosion. These characteristics make it well suited for the tropics.
With the versatility of corten steel, it is possible to create unique and changeable parts with the weather and light. In this way, the tones come together in nuances that complement the texture of the patina of the product. There are complete solutions for façades, brises, linings, pivot doors and coatings that fit the most varied architectural projects.
All products for outdoor use require regular maintenance. To keep maintenance costs and efforts to a minimum, GNEE has opted for durable materials in combination with a modular design. The durable materials guarantee quality and longevity, while the modular system allows for easy replacement of damaged parts. The various modules are linked together with specific anti-theft mounting hardware and can only be assembled with special (supplied) tools.
Examples of these types of projects include:
ß Evaluation of a new type of product or material specified during design.
ß An experimental installation or process initiated during a construction project. ß Trial-use of a non-qualified product that, if successful, might lead to future inclusion of the product on the Qualified Products List.
ß Seeking a solution to a material or design problem through documented experimentation.
