Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted mild steel cow sculpture | Painted mild steel is cheaper initially but requires repainting every few years; stainless steel maintains its finish permanently |
|---|---|
| A fiberglass animal sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and less expensive at large sizes but cannot be mirror polished and is more prone to damage in outdoor conditions |
| A corten steel animal form | Corten steel is chosen for its weathered, rusted appearance over time; this stainless steel version is chosen for a clean, reflective, long-lasting surface |
| A small-scale metal animal model | Small models are suitable for indoor or decorative use; this life size version is built for outdoor permanence and public visibility |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the open space—3 to 9 meters allows for strong presence in large areas
- Position the sculpture where it has a clear view of the sky, landscape, or building facade to maximize reflection
- Ensure the foundation and fixing system are designed for wind load at the full size
- Clean the surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that damage the polish
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or experiences winter de-icing
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production plus 15 to 20 days for transport from the factory to the site
