THE GALVALUME 55 ADVANTAGE:

Galvalume 55 coated steel is the fastest growing product in the world. No other hot-dip steel coating product can match the unique combination of the benefits and advantages of Galvalume 55.

Superior Corrosion Resistance
GALVALUME 55 provides three to nine times longer service life than galvanized coatings as shown by test specimens of Galvalume 55 and galvanized steel exposed in rural, industrial and marine environments. Galvalume 55's Al-Zn coating remains rust free after 20 years in rural and industrial environments.

Resistance to High-operating Temperature
Operating conditions resulting in surface temperature of up to 315° C are easily withstood by Galvalume 55 without discoloration and up to 600° C without heavy oxidation and scaling.

Energy-saving Thermal Reflectivity
Because of its bright surface, Galvalume 55 has excellent heat reflectivity for cooler environment inside buildings. And combined with commercial insulation material, provides a cost-effective, energy-efficient roofing system. GALVALUME 55 meet the US EPA ENERGY STAR Cool Roof requirements.

Standing Water Resistance
Galvalume 55 endures standing water corrosion longer than ordinary galvanized steel. With architectural design trends geared towards flatter roofs, superior resistance to standing water corrosion is an important consideration why Galvalume 55 is the most preffered roofing material today..

Attractive Appearance
The distinctive and copyrighted smooth, flat and fine spangle with white uniform crystalline appearance sets Galvalume 55 apart from either galvanized or aluminum-coated steel even when used for exposed unpainted applications.
