🌳 #UrbanTrees 🌳 are essential for creating healthier, more sustainable, and more livable communities.
That’s why, on a recent site visit to Walmart’s 350-acre Home Office Campus (currently under construction in #Bentonville AR), we were excited to see so many street trees protected by our Rain tree grates as part of the “Big Nature” landscape master plan by @SWAgroup Los Angeles.

✨ The homeowner who took these “before” and “after” images was so pleased once he installed his new grates that he found it “hard to believe for 29 years we lived with their plastic predecessors.”
✨ So why wait when it’s this easy and cost-effective to transform your drainage from an eyesore to a decorative focal point? Our cast metal grates are not only beautifully handcrafted, but they have also been engineered to fit the most widely available channels.
✨ There is a wide range of pattern options (including our Argo shown here) to complement your design efforts and the materials of the surrounding surfaces/landscape.

This mountain of scrap metal, one of many located in the yard of one of our partner foundries, is #sustainability personified!
♻️ Recycling and Reuse: Foundries extensively recycle scrap metal and defective castings. Metal can be melted down and reused repeatedly without losing its properties, reducing the need for new raw materials and minimizing waste.
🌎 Resource Efficiency: Foundries reduce the demand for virgin ores by using recycled metals. This helps conserve natural resources and reduces the environmental impact associated with mining and raw material extraction.
💲 Circular Economy: Foundries turn scrap metal and waste products back into valuable materials. This approach supports sustainability by creating a closed-loop system.
Iron Age is proud of our role in repurposing these materials, bringing beautiful, designer-cast metal grates and site furnishings to life.
Shout-out to our estimator, @Mr_DiegoZ, for providing a sense of scale to this massive mound of metal!

Our Oklahoma sales rep @CodyR628 captured a unique image looking through the 👁️ of our Needle bollard!
At Iron Age, we design our bollards so you don’t have to choose between aesthetics and safety. Decorative #castmetal bollards like the Needle enhance the surrounding area's architectural style and visual appeal while providing all the necessary protections.

👀 #IronAgeSighting 👀
While traveling to speak with design firms across this beautiful country of ours, Iron Age president Mark Armstrong loves to check in on local area project installations. On his latest trip to #SantaBarbara, he swung by @PaseoNuevoSB and found our Interlaken grates looking just as good as they did when they were installed back in 2020!

The expansion of Wind Creek Casino in #BethlehemPA features a design palette evoking the molten metal, powerful machinery, and industrial ambiance of nearby historic steel mills.
As such, the energy and movement suggested by the patterns of our #castmetal Dynamo and Spin grates make them the perfect finishing touches to the #hardscape surrounding the casino entrance.

We ❤️ a good #IronAgeSighting 👀 and @con_leche3 and @joanneeep do not disappoint! Take it from them,
once you catch your first glimpse of Iron Age in the wild, you won’t be able to walk past another grate again without checking to see if it’s ours! So don’t forget to #LookDown and If you find us there, take a pic and let us know! We’d love to share it!
