Over time, galvanised steel may develop a subtle natural patina, including areas of light surface rust. This is a normal part of the material’s ageing process and contributes to the character of the material. In some cases, small amounts of rust residue may transfer onto surrounding surfaces, such as flooring or decking.

When used as planters, contact with soil, fertilisers, and naturally occurring salts may accelerate the weathering process and the development of this patina. This is expected and part of the natural ageing of galvanised steel in outdoor environments.
