PPGI Global Specification &Technical Datasheet
1. Product Overview
Pre-Painted Galvanized Steel (PPGI) and Pre-Painted Galvalume Steel (PPGL) are high-performance coated steel products manufactured via cold-rolled substrate pretreatment (degreasing, phosphating), hot-dip coating (zinc for PPGI; 55%Al-Zn-Si alloy for PPGL), and multi-layer painting/curing. They offer superior corrosion resistance, aesthetics, and processability for global applications in construction, home appliances, and transportation.

PPGI : Premium Prepainted Steel Solutions
Crafted for Global Performance by a 20-Year Metal Manufacturing Specialist
For two decades, we have mastered the art of producing high-performance Pre-Painted Galvanized Steel (PPGI) and Pre-Painted Galvalume Steel (PPGL) —two iconic coated steel products trusted by industries worldwide. Blending advanced metallurgy with precision coating technology, our PPGI/PPGL delivers unrivaled durability, aesthetic versatility, and compliance with the strictest global standards. Below is a comprehensive overview of their composition, production, specifications, and certifications.
1. Raw Material Composition: The Foundation of Performance
The core distinction between PPGI and PPGL lies in their metallic coating composition, which defines their environmental resilience and application scope .
1.1 PPGI (Pre-Painted Galvanized Steel)
1.2 PPGL (Pre-Painted Galvalume Steel)
2. Manufacturing Process: Precision from Start to Finish
Our 6-step production ensures consistent quality, adhering to global manufacturing best practices :
1.Substrate Preparation: Uncoiling and stitching cold-rolled steel coils; feeding into entry loops for continuous processing.
2.Cleaning &Pretreatment: Degreasing to remove oil/dust, followed by phosphating to create a micro-rough surface for paint adhesion —critical for preventing coating peeling .
3.Metallic Coating:
PPGI: Hot-dip galvanization (zinc bath at 450°C).
1.Paint Application: Roll-coating primer and topcoat uniformly using automated machines, ensuring color consistency across batches .
2.Curing &Cooling: Passing through ovens (200-250°C) to harden coatings, then water cooling to lock in performance .
3.Quality Inspection &Packaging: 100% testing (thickness, adhesion, salt spray resistance); coiling (ID: 508/610mm) and packaging with VCI film + kraft paper + ISPM 15 pallets .
