Features And Benefits Of Zincalume® Steel

ZINCALUME® steel

Advanced Coating Technology
The coating on ZINCALUME® steel comprises of 55% aluminium, 43.5% zinc and 1.5% silicon. It has excellent forming capabilities and is available in high strength grades.

Award Winning Style That Helps Build Your Business Tool
ZINCALUME® steelIt's not surprising that the projects designed using ZINCALUME® steel have won numerous architectural awards over the years. With the legendary durability and strength of ZINCALUME® steel, you can be confident you have the right solution for your project.

Decades of Proven Performance
Launched in 1976, after intensive research and development, ZINCALUME® steel continues to set the standard for corrosion resistance and long life. It's been proven to stand the test of time because it was designed to withstand the rigors of harsh climatic conditions. In fact, for over two decades, the product's performance has been monitored across a wide range of climatic conditions using exposure test sites.

A Significantly Longer Lifespan
ZINCALUME® steelZINCALUME® steel was developed after extensive research into improving the traditional performance of galvanised iron. By blending aluminium with zinc in an alloy coating, our researchers discovered a way to greatly enhance corrosion resistance. As a result, our extensive testing programme indicates that ZINCALUME® steel lifespan is up to four times that of ordinary galvanised steel.

Computer Controlled Coating System
Our coating mass control technology is amongst the most advanced in the world. A sophisticated coating mass gauge is linked to a computer in a closed-loop control system ensuring accurate control and consistency of coating mass.
