REDCOR® steel, is a cold rolled Australian made weathering steel. A weathering steel eliminates the need for painting as it forms a stable rust-like appearance when exposed to the weather.

FormBoss is privileged to now lead the market in supplying REDCOR® steel as a replacement to imported weathering steels. Proudly made in Australia by BlueScope, REDCORE® steel has been specifically developed for Australian harsh conditions. It’s cleaner to work with and displays an overall better uniform finish than imported alternatives.

This steel has increased resistance to corrosion as it forms a protective layer of oxide on its surface which regenerates as required over the steel’s life.
REDCOR® steel will appear light grey almost polished when first purchased off the shelf. This is simply because it is supplied to us with a thin film of oil on the outer layer, ensuring it doesn’t start rusting on the shelf. It will take anywhere from a few weeks to 4 months to get an even coating of rust.
