Galvalume

Galvalume Overview

Galvalume is a coating made up of zinc, aluminum, and silicon, protecting steel from rust. One of the most popular applications for galvalume steel is for outdoor metal roofing and metal paneling. It has superior resistance to corrosion in outdoor environments than standard galvanized steel and resists corrosion when exposed to snow, ice, and rain. A galvalume roof will effectively increase the durability and longevity of your metal roof and other metal building products.
