The end finish is resilient to aggressive handling, which, over the last 150 years, has been solidly proven to provide a long-lasting, tough and low maintenance coating. Importantly, galvanised coatings are also recyclable, giving the steel an almost continuous life span.

Galvanizing is a term often used to describe zinc coatings in general. But, different types of zinc coatings vary in coating thickness and other characteristics and it is important to understand that all zinc coatings are not the same.

Hot dip galvanizing has many benefits for the specifier

Corrosion resistance
Galvanized coatings protect steel in three ways .

Coating toughness
Galvanizing is unique. The process produces a coating which is bonded metallurgically to the steel.

Reliability
Specified to a single standard
BS EN ISO 150

Lowest lifetime cost
Competitive initial cost and long life make hot dip galvanizing the most versatile, economic method of protecting steelwork.

Long life
Often exceeding 40 years
