We supply Zincalume (a mixture of zinc and aluminium alloy) sheets/coil, stainless steel sheets/coil and tin plates/coil.

We supplied Zincalume (zinc alumunium) to:
Air Con: fabricators, manufacturers for air con ductings, air coolers and other machineries.
Construction: steel frame structural, construction of wall or partitions, elavators, construction of container cabins, platforms, ventilated floors etc.
Computer/Clean Room: manufacture of raised floorings for clean rooms, equipments and furniture.
Manufacturing: computer parts, casings, disk drives, electronic parts, all metal products related to zinc, aluminium, steel, galvanised steel, galvalume etc.
Marine: building, air cooler for marine use,
Others:
roller shutters, construction of elavators, door and window frames, steel cabinets, refrigerator, lift, cooler panels, construction of shelving etc.

Below are some of the advantages of Zincalume.

ZINCALUME:
The zinc and aluminium coating formulation of ZINCALUME steel was developed
in the 1960s, after extensive studies on improving the performance of
hot-dipped galvanised products. Research shows that a mixture of 55%
aluminium. 43.5% zinc and the remainder 1.5% silicon, by weight, was most
effective for corrosion protection.

ZINCALUME steel outlasts Galvanised steel (G.I.) by up to 4 times longer in
marine, industrial and rural atmospheres. The zinc/aluminium alloy coating
on ZINCALUME steel provides the optimum combination of corrosion resistance
that is far superior to ordinary galvanised zinc coatings.

This coating ensures long-term durability of aluminium and the sacrificial
or galvanic protection of cut edges of zinc.

LONGER LIFE WITH CORROSION RESISTANCE
Zincalume can last up to 6 years in Severe Marine Environment.
Galvanised steel (G.I.) loses its coating with the apprearance of red rust on the surface but ZINCALUME steel is still in good condition, with no signs of corrosion.

Resistance To Atmosphere Corrosion
ZINCALUME steel oulasts Galvanised steel (G.I.) by up to 4 times longer in marine, industrial and rural atmosphere. The zinc/aluminium alloy coating on ZINCALUME steel provides the optimum combination of corrosion resistance that is far superior to ordinary galvanised zinc coatings.
This coating ensures long-term durability of aluminium and the sacrificial or galvanic protection of cut edges of zinc.

TESTED WITH SALT SPRAY TESTING
Laboratory salt spray testing were conducted in accordance to the ASTM test method B117 and AS1580. Results show that ZINCALUME steel performs better compared to Galvanised steel (G.I.) after 24hours of salt spray tesing.

EXCELLENCE IN FABRICATION
Easy To Paint
The surface of ZINCALUME steel can be easily field-painted without using a primer. The best is to use water-based acrylic paint but other paints can also be used such as alkyd, polyurethane, etc.

Excellent Formability
ZINCALUME steel has excellent formability qualities and is suitable for most forming operations. Without sacrificing coating adhersion, ZINCALUME steel can be readily bent, rool-formed or drawn.

Bending: Laboratory tests confirm exvellent adherence of the zinc and aluminium coating to the steel substrate during bending, folding and brake pressing that are done commercially as with conventional Galvanised steel.

Roll: Forming
ZINCALUME steel is readily roll-formed due to excellent lubricating qualities of the resin coating so roll-formers rarely need additional lubricants (which can be potentially hazadous). The resin coating also reduces wear and tear on rolls and dies, and reduces risk of marks on the roll surface during the process.
