FOCUS ON ZINC‐5: New developments in hot dip galvanizing

Abstract

Introduction Over the last fifteen years the tonnage of zinc used by the U.K. general galvanizing industry has increased by about 15%. During the same period the tonnage of steelwork galvanized has increased by over 50%. These figures indicate a change in the pattern of use of galvanized steel and, in this article, these changes and the reasons for them will be discussed. The galvanizing industry is embarking on an expanded marketing campaign and there is every indication that, under the impetus of this campaign, the tonnage of steel galvanized will be still further greatly increased.
