Galvanizing

It's the most popular surface protection against atmospheric factors that can easily be called the most classic.

A zinc layer is the only corrosion-resistant coating that in case of single damages doesn't lose its properties.

The thickness of the zinc layer is specified in micrometers and reflects into the durability of the protection.

Types of galvanizing

There are several different galvanizing methods, however the most popular are:

• hot-dip galvanizing
• electro-galvanizing
  
  

Each of these methods has its own characteristics and applications, although according to experts, the hot-dip galvanizing is one of the most effective methods of metal protection against corrosion. Hence it is often used in the construction and automotive industries.
