Here are 3 reasons why we mainly use copper for our outdoor lighting.
Quality
Copper is a high-quality option. It oxidizes over time to form a green patina (this can take up to 20 years), protecting the metal from further corrosion. Some architects or landscapers choose to oxidize their products for a rustic and authentically elegant look, like the light fixture below. Because copper is refined, it is ideal for a high-end patio for the steps leading up to your front door.

Strong and Durable
Homeowners looking for a more durable material should consider copper outdoor lights. The composition of this type of lighting includes zinc and copper. They form a stronger core, which increases the life of your fixture. Copper stands up well in all environments, including coastal or winter areas (salt resistant and robust material). Most importantly, copper is a very durable material for lighting, almost entirely impervious to the elements.
Even better, you can recycle copper lamps once they have served their purpose, making them the most environmentally friendly light fixture on the market! Did you know that copper is considered the most ecologically friendly and cleanest metallic material?
Recyclable and Supporting the Circular Economy
Recyclability is a property that establishes a material’s “green credentials”, which means its degree of environmental friendliness. Recycling copper requires up to 85% less energy than primary production. Worldwide, this saves 40 million tonnes of CO2 (equivalent to the emissions from 16 million cars).
