ArcelorMittal's Magnelis® is a game-changer in the world of metallic coatings, offering unparalleled corrosion protection.
As the choice of professionals, Magnelis® stands out in the market, not just for its exceptional quality but also for its innovative formulation. It is manufactured using a continuous hot dip galvanising process where it is immersed in a unique molten bath composed of zinc, 3.5% aluminium, and 3% magnesium, giving it its distinctive chemical properties. Thanks to its unique composition, Magnelis® provides an unprecedented level of surface and cut-edge protection, even in the most hostile environments.
Why choose ArcelorMittal's Magnelis®?
- Industry-leading corrosion resistance: With Magnelis®, say goodbye to corrosion. Its advanced protection is three times more effective than batch hot dip galvanised steel, as consistently proven in outdoor tests. According to ArcelorMittal’s Global R&D results on four ZMs available on the market, after four years of field exposure in a marine and industrial atmospheric environment, the coating consumption of Magnelis® is 2 to 3.6 less.
- Targeted self-healing technology: Magnelis® showcases a self-healing effect that guards against edge corrosion, a common concern in less advanced products.
- Cost-effectiveness meets quality: Magnelis® offers the best value for your investment, serving as a cost-effective alternative to batch hot dip galvanised steels without compromising on performance.
- Environmental-friendly choice: Opt for Magnelis®, a product that not only meets efficiency needs but also embodies environmental responsibility. Crafted in alignment with today's sustainability standards, Magnelis® is supported by ArcelorMittal's XCarb® initiative, which is dedicated to innovating for a carbon-neutral future, making it the conscientious choice for those committed to ecological integrity.
- Certification: Magnelis® sets the benchmark for industry excellence with its impressive array of international certifications, assuring customers of its superior quality, sustainability, and performance standards.
