In these photos, BJ Roofing and Cladding showcases the use of Original Corten steel panels, also known as weathering steel.
These panels are chosen for their unique ability to develop a protective layer of rust over time, which not only safeguards the material but also creates a rustic, textured aesthetic that is highly sought after in modern design.
As the panels age, they gradually form their distinctive weathered look, adding depth and character to any structure.
We expertly install these Corten steel panels onto aluminum bracketry, with all fixings meticulously concealed within the gaps between the panels, ensuring a clean and seamless finish.
During the process, the Corten steel panels have begun to develop their characteristic rust patina, though they have not yet reached their final result.
The initial stages of weathering are visible, with the steel forming a protective layer of oxidation that gradually evolves over time.
This early rusting gives the panels a raw, evolving aesthetic, showcasing a mix of vibrant hues as they transition towards their final, more uniform weathered look.
Despite this transformation, the panels remain structurally sound, with the rust acting as a natural barrier against further corrosion.
The concealed fixings and bracketry within the gaps between the panels continue to support the seamless appearance as the aging process unfolds.

The result is a stunning final product, with the Corten steel panels achieving their full, rich patina and distinctive rustic look.
Installed in a sleek plank-style system, these weathered panels not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also offer durability and low maintenance, with their protective rust layer fully formed.
The installation showcases clean lines and precise craftsmanship, with all fixings expertly concealed, allowing the design to shine without interruption.
