| The
corrosion of steelwork with in Australia costs the country, companies
and individuals billions of dollars per year in maintenance cost,
replacement or down grading of structures. The long term solution,
in most cases, 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 but
ensuring you peace of mind that the steelwork will outlast the project
(and probably all of us as well).
Protect Your Investment
By galvanizing your (or your clients) product you are protecting
your investment. Let's face it you're spending hard earned money
to build a product why not protect it for a lifetime by Hot Dip
Galvanizing.
Maintenance on unsightly corrosion can be devastating to the economies
of projects. Failing paint systems that require ongoing touch ups
or reapplication can far exceed the original cost to apply.
It usually isn't just a one off maintenance but ongoing year after
year. Once a job is galvanized the maintenance is minimal if 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 up
the product is ready to go. No curing time. Projects are commonly
delayed whilst waiting for paint systems to cure during cold winter
months. Galvanizing offers a process that can be completed within
24 hours if necessary.
Let's Do It For the Long Term!!!!!
It is important to resist the easy cheap way out. In some instances
the initial cost may be dearer to galvanize but the long term cost
savings are substantial
