The
corrosion of steelwork costs governments, private corporations and individuals billions of dollars per year in maintenance cost,
replacement or down grading of structures.
The long term solution is to hot dip galvanize to ensure a long lasting,
durable and cost effective protective treatment. When you galvanize
your product you are not only protecting it from the elements... you are ensuring that the steelwork will outlast the project.
Protect Your Investment
By galvanizing your (or your clients) product, you are protecting
your investment. You're spending hard earned money
to build a product... why not protect it for a lifetime with Hot Dip
Galvanizing?
Maintenance to remedy unsightly corrosion can be devastating to project
budgets. Painted surfaces that require ongoing touch ups or
reapplication can far exceed the original cost to apply.
Lifetime maintenance costs
Once a job is galvanized, the maintenance is minimal or non-existent.
The base layer of the zinc alloy is actually harder than the steel
itself thus making it difficult to damage and even site welding
of the galvanized product can be touched up with ease.
Turnaround Times
The galvanizing process is such that once quenched and cleaned,
the product is ready to go, with no curing time. Projects are commonly
delayed while waiting for paint systems to cure during cold winter
months. Galvanizing offers a process that can be completed within
24 hours if necessary.
Long Term Solution
It is important to resist the easy cheap way out. In some instances
the initial cost may be higher to galvanize; however, the long term return on investment is substantial.
