Ease of Installation
Steel landscape edging installs quickly and
easily. Dual punch out pockets for interlocking stakes allow stakes to be driven
down in a straight line. A variety of accessories help insure flawless installations
onto a wide array of terrain.
Environmentally Friendly
Of all the different things which can be
recycled, steel is North America’s most
recycled material. According to the Steel
Recycling Institute (SRI), as of November
15, 2012 the recycling rate of steel is at an
all time high of 92%. All North American
steel contains recycled steel.
Product Description
COYOTE LANDSCAPE PRODUCTS
offers steel landscape edging for residential and commercial application. Steel
edging is available in powder coated,
plated and raw finishes. Steel edging is
recommended for use in areas requiring
permanent and distinct separation of different materials.
Basic Uses
Use steel landscape edging as a border
between planting beds, walkways, and
driveways. Steel landscape edging is ideal
for separating different materials from one
another, like grass from mulch, rock fill
from grass, paver bricks from walkway, etc.
Advantages
Availability
COYOTE LANDSCAPE PRODUCTS steel
edging is manufactured for superior durability on state-of-the-art roll forming equipment. In-house manufacturing capabilities
allow for extensive inventory in-stock. Lead
times for most products are only two to
three days.
Durability
Steel landscape edging is the most durable edging available. It will not rot or become brittle in cold weather. It resists frost
heave, ground movement, and withstands
routine landscape maintenance with its
uniform thickness and height.
EcoCoat™ powder coating
takes it a step further.
Pre-treating
A specialized process called plaforization
provides a simple, disposal-free solution
for pre-treating metal to remove surface
oils and other contaminates that would
mar the powder coating. The plaforization
process is conducted with low vapor pressure, emitting virtually no VOCs. There is
no water rinse involved, so no wastewater
is produced. No sludge is created; nothing
is added to a landfill. The process contains
no halogenated compounds, ozone-depleting compounds, carcinogens, mutagens,
or hazardous air pollutants.
Powder Coating
Powder coatings emit virtually no VOCs.
Powder coating overspray can be recycled
and thus it is possible to achieve nearly
100% use of the coating. Powder coatings
can produce much thicker coatings than
conventional liquid coatings without running or sagging, and increases products
durability.
Infrared Curing
Only the surface of the part and the
powder must be heated rather than the
whole part. The IR oven has no blowers or
fans and uses much less energy, reducing
emissions.
Dry Off
A dry-off oven is used that recuperates
heat exhausted from the IR Cure Ovens.
Curing and drying occur in a nearly closedloop.
