HOT-DIP GALVANIZING

What is Galvanizing?

Galvanizing is a corrosion protection for steel or iron, in which the substrate is coated with zinc to prevent it from rusting. The galvanization process entails immersing clean, oxide-free iron or steel into molten zinc coating that is metallurgically bonded to the iron or steel’s surface.

Protect Steel From Corrosion

Recycle

Steel and zinc can be recycled together without any loss of properties, even at the end of galvanized steel’s long service life.

Make

Galvanizing is an efficient dip process that provides the highest level of protection for steel. It maximises durability, enables reuse, and supports recycling of steel products.

Use

Galvanized steel is fully protected by a robust zinc coating designed to last for the entire service life of the component, significantly reducing the need for replacement or ongoing maintenance.

Reuse

Galvanized steel is durable and can be easily disassembled for reuse across multiple life cycles, with its protective zinc coating remaining intact on the component throughout.

Remake

Galvanized steel products can be reused through regalvanizing, extending their service life and conserving natural resources.
