Proven performance is an important element of the decision making process for specification within the construction process.

With its long history of use dating back to the 1840’s – galvanized corrugated sheet used for warehousing in London Docks – corrosion protection of steel by hot dip galvanizing has a long proven record. In order to further categorise and record its more recent historical record we have embarked on creating a new archive of projects that will be updated regularly.

This will feature a broad range of projects, locations and encompass details from coating thickness measurements to coating aesthetics.
