What Is Galvalume Plus™ Steel and Why Is It the Best Choice for Your Building?

When investing in a steel building, choosing the right material is crucial for longevity, durability, and cost-effectiveness. At Pioneer Steel, we use Galvalume Plus™ steel, a premium coated steel that offers superior protection against the elements. But what exactly is Galvalume Plus™, and why is it the best choice for your structure?

What Is Galvalume Plus™ Steel?

Galvalume Plus™ is a steel coating technology that combines 55% aluminum, 43.4% zinc, and 1.6% silicon, creating an exceptionally corrosion-resistant and long-lasting metal surface. This coating is applied to steel through a hot-dip process, ensuring even coverage and superior durability.

Unlike traditional galvanized steel, Galvalume Plus™ provides enhanced protection against rust, moisture, and harsh weather conditions.

Key Benefits of Galvalume Plus™ Steel

Superior Corrosion Resistance

The aluminum-zinc coating gives Galvalume Plus™ twice the corrosion resistance of traditional galvanized steel. This means your building will stay stronger and rust-free for decades, even in humid or coastal environments.

Self-Healing Protection

Small scratches and cut edges naturally self-heal over time due to the chemical composition of the coating, helping to maintain the integrity of your steel panels.

Incredible Durability

Steel buildings made with Galvalume Plus™ withstand extreme conditions, including heavy snow, strong winds, and harsh sun exposure, making them ideal for the Canadian climate.

Energy-Efficient & Reflective

The reflective surface of Galvalume Plus™ helps reduce heat absorption, keeping your building cooler in summer and reducing energy costs. This makes it an excellent choice for energy-conscious builders.

Low Maintenance & Long Warranty

Because of its superior rust resistance, Galvalume Plus™ requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional steel. Pioneer Steel provides a 50-year manufacturer’s warranty against corrosion, ensuring long-term peace of mind.

Galvalume Plus™ outperforms other coatings in corrosion resistance, energy efficiency, and durability—making it the best investment for your steel building.
