Whether or not you believe #RustIsBeautiful, remember it's only temporary. ⏳ Depending on the environment our #castiron grates are placed in, the oxidation process generally lasts anywhere from a few months to a year. The more traffic and weather the grates receive, the faster the transformation. ➡️ to see what this Minnione #treegrate array looks like today.

#DidYouKnow tree pits protected from soil compaction offer notably higher #stormwater infiltration capacity than unprotected pits? So protect your pits!! Our #TreeGrates and #TreeGuards (a.k.a. #PlanterFences) offer adaptable, low maintenance protection in a wide variety of sizes, patterns, materials, and finishes. ➡️ for a few more beautiful examples.

We generally recommend letting our grates age naturally, but we can deliver #InstantGratification too! If bypassing the temporary orange oxidation (a.k.a. #rusty) phase of raw cast iron is preferred for project aesthetics, we offer an eco-friendly solution called #BakedOnOilFinish. We start out with a raw #castiron grate, get it good and rusty, then dip it in #recycled vegetable oil and bake it. The natural oxidation process is still occurring under the surface, but this finish allows for a more smooth, graceful transition to final #patina.

#RustIsBeautiful 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Raw #castiron starts out grey in color, but upon contact with water, a bright orange oxide develops. This loosely adhering layer (a.k.a. #rust) easily washes or wears away, leaving behind a more tightly adhering oxide coating that actually protects the grate from further corrosion. What you end up with is a warm, reddish-brown #patina, similar to any manhole cover in the street.
