Cost-effective and long-lasting solutions
Corten vineyard posts are not only up to 20% more cost-effective than other materials of equivalent size and strength, but they also excel in corrosion resistance. Thanks to a natural weathering process, corten forms a protective patina that enhances the appearance of the post over time while reducing degradation—making them both practical and visually appealing.
Long-term savings with low-maintenance posts
Choosing corten means investing in a long-term trellis solution that significantly reduces the need for maintenance or replacements. The material’s excellent mechanical and anti-corrosive properties ensure fewer interventions and greater savings over time. These posts are ideal for growers looking for reliable performance without compromising on budget, even amidst fluctuating material costs.
Vineyard accessories made of corten steel
In addition to line posts and end posts, corten steel is also used for various vineyard accessories, such as:
- Vineyard trellis wire
- Anti-sink base plates for end posts
- Training stakes for young vines
- Wire tensioners (spring strainers)
These components are designed to work seamlessly with Sika’s posts, ensuring complete integration and reliability.
Galvanised steel trellis posts, a durable alternative
For those seeking an alternative material, galvanised steel vineyard posts offer additional protection thanks to hot-dip galvanising, which is ideal for humid or coastal environments. This extra layer of defence ensures extended longevity in conditions where corrosion resistance is critical.
End and line posts for advanced vineyard systems
Choosing Sika’s corten or galvanised vineyard end and line posts means investing in a vineyard system that improves efficiency, productivity, and operational costs over time. With a proven track record, Sika provides vineyard professionals with high-quality, low-maintenance trellis posts that support the healthy growth and long-term performance of every vineyard.
