Our galvanised mild steel sheets have been hot dipped galvanized in a zinc coating, providing a robust and abrasion and corrosion resistant covering that is widely used in situations where rust resistance is essential. Mild steel that has been galvanized is ideal for outdoor use since it resists the elements and has a far longer lifespan than mild steel. Since exposure to the elements outside can cause the zinc coating to lose some of its effectiveness over time, rusting is eventually unavoidable, but it takes place over many years.
