Independent SCI review confirms Magnelis® outperforms comparable batch galvanized coatings

An independent review by the UK's Steel Construction Institute (SCI) concluded that Magnelis® provides greater corrosion protection than comparable batch galvanized coatings and enhanced protection at cut edges through its self-healing mechanism.

New independent validation for Magnelis®

The Steel Construction Institute (SCI), an independent authority on steel construction in the UK, has reviewed the performance of Magnelis® compared with batch galvanized coatings.

The review concluded that:

  • Magnelis® ZM310 provides greater corrosion protection than batch galvanized steel with a 55 μm coating.
  • Magnelis® ZM410 provides greater corrosion protection than batch galvanized steel with a 70 μm coating.
  • The self-healing mechanism of Magnelis® provides enhanced protection at unprotected cut edges compared to zinc galvanizing.


These findings further reinforce Magnelis® as a high-performance metallic coating solution for demanding applications requiring long-term corrosion protection.
