... in a number of different ways.

Hot-dip galvanizing protects steel from corrosion far longer than other corrosion protection techniques do.

Using hot-dip galvanizing is ecologically more feasible than using other coatings.

Moreover, hot-dip galvanizing, as in the case of zinc in general, has a lasting effect and protects the environment. Zinc is a natural element.

In addition to this, zinc, as in the case of hot-galvanized steel, can be recycled without any problems. Zinc manufacturers use modern plant engineering based on cyclical flows.

Up to 95 per cent can be recycled. A single-variety separation via the process of reduction is possible.

And to top it all: recycled zinc can be completely re-utilized without any loss of quality.

Or to put it differently: zinc that today is found in stair-railings, traffic lights, or watering pots can be recycled and thus the zinc can be employed again to protect steel from rust, in other places and perhaps for decades.
