Steel partnership helps make PV sector more sustainable
14 May 2024A unique collaboration between ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products, KS Service Center, and Van der Valk Solar Systems is creating sustainable solar panel mounting systems that are available in Europe. The systems are produced using Magnelis® coated steel sourced with accompanying XCarb® green steel certificates from ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products. The steel is transported to KS Service Center using electric vehicles wherever possible. It is processed by KS Service Center and their chain partner KS Systems using machines that are powered by 100% renewable electricity.

Technical information
Magnelis® is a flat carbon steel coated on both sides with a zinc-aluminium-magnesium alloy*
- Excellent corrosion resistance - at least 3 times better than galvanised steel in external applications
- Complete edge protection thanks to the self-healing properties of Magnelis® on cut edges
- Outstanding resistance in harsh environments (maritime, chloride, and ammonia atmospheres)
- More cost-effective than batch galvanised steels due to simple manufacturing
- Reduced maintenance costs compared to post painting
Magnelis® has a uniform metallic look, which may appear slightly matt to bright. Variations in appearance and a tendency to darken are possible. Corrosion protection is not impaired by this visual change.
The excellent corrosion resistance properties of Magnelis® have been accredited with a Preliminary Technical Evaluation of Material (ETPM) by CSTB (Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment) and certified by a number of other external bodies, among them SP (Science Partner) and DIBT (Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik).
* This alloy is composed of 93.5% zinc, 3.5% aluminium, and 3% magnesium.
