Galvanized, Galvalume, and Prepainted Steel (Pre-coated Metal)

Steel is an indispensable material for global construction due to its high strength, light-weight, stable performance and cost efficiency. Moreover, it is recyclable.
Galvanized steel sheet is coated with pure zinc, offering reliable basic anti-corrosion capacity, widely used for structural frames.
Aluzinc steel sheet adopts zinc-aluminum alloy coating. With superior rust and heat resistance, it serves longer service life than ordinary galvanized sheet with same metallic coating mass, ideal for outdoor exposed components.
As technology going forward, AZM (Alu-zinc-Magnesium, some use ZAM due to different propotion) metallic coating is getting more dominant. The composite coating of Zn, Al and Mg delivers outstanding anti-corrosion performance, far better than traditional galvanized and aluzinc steel. Magnesium promotes dense protective film to stop rust spreading. Zinc-aluminum-magnesium coated steel, ZAM coated steel, is widely applied in photovoltaic support brackets due to the above mentioned features.
Prepainted steel coil (PPGI/PPGL) is made by applying organic paint on galvanized or aluzinc substrates. It combines anti-corrosion performance and rich decorative colours, directly used for building wall and roof panels without extra painting.
All three materials greatly improve steel’s corrosion resistance, cut later maintenance work, and fit prefabricated steel buildings, garden houses and industrial constructions perfectly.

Besides Steel Coils, we also supply GI, GL Corrugated roofing sheet and trapzoid roofing sheet. Didn’t see the roofing type you need, just contact us.

Mostly the roofing sheet made of GI coils are corrugated. And the roof sheet share the same sepcifications mentioned above.


Prepainted steel coils, or Pre-coated Metals are steel substrate with a full range of colors. It is widely used in roofing, cladding, and sandwich panel making. The following table shows our supply capacity.

This brings more aesthetic features. Normally we usd RAL as the standard color chart white accepting customer sample for color matching. Moreover, different types of paint provide different extra protection to the steel sheet itself.

Coating TypeCoating SystemKey PropertiesTypical ApplicationsNot Recommended For
Polyester (PE)Standard Polyester TopcoatLow cost, excellent formability, standard corrosion resistance, DFT: 18–25μm, 5–8 years service life in inland environmentsGeneral industrial workshops, prefabricated house wall/roof panels, agricultural buildings, inland steel structure enclosuresCoastal high-salt environments, heavy industrial corrosion zones, long-term outdoor exposure over 10 years
Silicon Modified Polyester (SMP)Silicon Modified PolyesterBetter scratch resistance, stain resistance and hardness than PE, good weatherability, DFT: 20–28μm, 8–12 years service lifeWarehouse panels, light industrial buildings, appliance shells, scenarios requiring high surface hardnessHigh-corrosion coastal environments, extreme weather regions with strong UV exposure
High Durability Polyester (HDP)High Durability PolyesterExcellent UV resistance, color retention and chalk resistance, superior weatherability, DFT: 22–30μm, 15–20 years outdoor service lifePhotovoltaic (PV) support brackets, outdoor steel structure enclosures, coastal industrial buildings, long-service-life prefabricated housesStrong acid/alkali chemical environments (requires PVDF coating)
Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF)PVDF Fluorocarbon ResinSuperior chemical resistance, UV stability, self-cleaning property, extreme color retention, DFT: 25–35μm, 20–25 years service life in harsh environmentsCoastal building facades, chemical plant steel structures, high-end architectural projects, extreme corrosion zonesLow-cost general applications (over-performance), processing requiring severe bending (risk of coating cracking)

Note: All performance data is based on standard hot-dip galvanized (Z) or zinc-aluminum-magnesium (ZM) steel substrates. Actual service life varies with local environment, coating thickness and installation conditions.

Same as galvanzied steel, we also supply profiled steel sheet which can installed directly.
