High-Performance Weathering Steel: Corten Steel S355JOWP Plates for U.A.E. Projects

In the ever-evolving construction and industrial sectors of the U.A.E., material selection plays a crucial role in ensuring long-term durability, structural strength, and minimal maintenance. At Metcore Alloys, we proudly offer Corten Steel S355JOWP Plates, a premier solution for architects, engineers, and fabricators across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and beyond.







What Are Corten Steel S355JOWP Plates?


Corten Steel S355JOWP is a weathering steel developed for enhanced atmospheric corrosion resistance. The steel forms a stable rust-like appearance after exposure to weather, creating a protective layer that prevents deeper rust penetration. This natural patina eliminates the need for painting or protective coatings, making it ideal for outdoor use.


S355JOWP refers to the specific grade within the EN 10025-5 standard, which is known for high tensile strength and superior resistance to the U.A.E.'s challenging climate, including sand, saline air, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
