Galvanised Steel

Galvanised steel is one of the most popular types of steel used in the building industry. It’s a preferred construction material primarily because of its proven durability. Galvanised steel is an ideal building material as it offers the corrosion protection of a tough zinc-iron coating and possesses the formability and hardwearing quality of steel.

The versatility of galvanised steel makes it an incredibly useful material with a wide range of applicability. You can use it for several types of projects in different industries, such as the agriculture, automotive, construction and renewable sectors.

Benefits of using galvanised steel

The wide adoption of galvanised steel is primarily due to the following benefits it offers:

  • Affordability: Unlike other types of treated steel, galvanised steel is relatively more affordable. Moreover, when you order it for your project, it comes to you in ready-to-use form. It doesn’t require any sort of prepping or special treatment, thereby saving you from additional costs and effort.
  • Extreme durability: The galvanisation process that galvanised steel undergoes gives it exceptional strength and toughness. In fact, even without maintenance, a piece or unit of industrial steel can last for over 50 years under normal weather conditions and more than 20 years in extreme environments. Its level of durability makes galvanised steel an incredibly reliable building material.
  • Corrosion and rust resistance: As mentioned earlier, galvanised steel comes with a protective zinc coating. This means that even when the steel component is totally exposed, the zinc coating will corrode first. And although the iron elements in steel make it vulnerable to rusting, the addition of zinc protects the steel from moisture and oxygen.
