Roof metal truss ZINCALUME®

Setting a new industry benchmark, next generation ZINCALUME® steel meets the growing demands of a changing built environment for durability, resilience and sustainability; giving you the confidence to create for years to come. Next generation ZINCALUME® steels patented Activate™ technology introduces magnesium into the aluminium-zinc alloy coating, improving galvanic protection by activating the aluminium. The result is a tougher protective coating that's more resistant to scratches and scuffs encountered during construction. The protective coating innovation also increases the product lifespan of next generation ZINCALUME® steel whilst using fewer metal resources. Compared to ZINCALUME® steel AZ150, next generation ZINCALUME® steel AM125 has a smaller environmental footprint^ in all 18 Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) categories assessed. Over a 17 year period, more than 5,000 panels have been tested in a wide variety of laboratory and real world climatic conditions. Additionally 50 building sites, comprising a wide range of applications, as well as 5 purpose built test structures have been tested in the real world, including extreme marine environments. The result is confidence that next generation ZINCALUME® steel is more durable and more resilient.
