Pre-Painted Galvanized Iron (PPGI) is an industrial steel product with multiple uses. It is a form of galvanized iron (GI) that is also dipped into zinc. However, the zinc coat is pre-painted in the factory instead of waiting until after the steel is formed. Applying a zinc coat prevents rusting. PPGI is also known as metallic coated steels, or pre-coated steel. This product will typically come in the form of a coil. This steel is often not costly and can last for a long period of time.

How to transport PPGI Coil?

PPGI color coil storage

When storing the coil before transport, the steel's lifespan will decrease if left in certain weather conditions. These may include rain or large temperature differences. The PPGI coil is wound during transport and will hold the water and create damage.

Labels are always checked and confirmed to make sure the correct product is shipped. The product is loaded and unloaded by forklift and transported to its destination or a ship for export. It is tied down and secured to prevent damage.
