Steel is a mainstay in modern construction and has been since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Engineers, architects and construction professionals trust the strength and durability steel provides; however, as soon as steel is exposed to the environment, it begins to corrode. PSG Hot dip galvanizing protects steel from corrosion due to a metallurgical bond that occurs when steel is submerged in molten zinc. The reaction creates intermetallic layers, harder than the base steel itself, resulting in an extremely abrasion resistant coating that can last for decades.
