PPGI Steel Introduce
PPGI is pre-painted galvanized steel, also known as pre-coated steel, color coated steel etc.
Using Hot Dip Galvanized Steel Coil as the substrate, PPGI is made by first going through surface pretreatment, then the coating of one or more layers of liquid coating by roll coating, and finally baking and cooling. The coatings used including polyester, silicon modified polyester, high-durability, corrosion-resistance and formability.
We are a PPGI & PPGL manufacturer in Shandong, China. Our PPGI (Prepainted Galvanized Steel) & PPGL (Prepainted Galvalume Steel) are available in a variety of specifications.
We could also provide the product life length lasts for decades as customers required.
What Is PPGI Steel?
PPGI steel is short for pre-painted galvanized steel. As the name implies, it uses hot-dip galvanized steel as a substrate. Then the galvanized steel is cleaned and pre-treated first to remove the oil and dust on the surface. After that, the prepared base metal is painted with layers of organic coatings, such as PE, SMP, HDP, PVDF, etc. We offers paints from different brands, such as Nippon paint, AkzoNobel paint, etc. This continuous painting process is known as the coil coating process, resulting in a multi-layered structure of PPGI steel. The layers include the base metal, zinc coating layer, pre-treatment (chemical conversion coating) layer, primer coating, and top/back coating. The structure drawing below provides a visual representation of the PPGI steel structure.

Quality Control
We have our own Physical & Chemical Testing Center Lab to guarantee our product quality. Our test items & instrument fully meet international standards.
Our Service
Cut large coils into small coils.
For steel coils, we can cut one large steel coil into small steel coils for loading at seaport;
because for container shipping, each container usually loads weight can not be over 26 tons, but
each large coil is usually about 28 tons, so one large coils has to be cut into small coils,
and because the forklift usually takes 7-10 tons at seaport, so for easy loading into conatiner,
each large steel coil usually is cut into 3 small coils. For bulk vessel shipping, it usually
demands coils weight under 18 tons, so most times, also need cut one large coil into 2 small coils.
Open flat coils into steel plate.
For final application, need open flat the coils and cut the coils into steel plate, so we open
flat the coils and cut the coils to steel plate to the sizes as required. For saving cost for loading
by container, load into 20 feet containers, so cut the length under 5800mm, usually as required to
cut to length 2440mm and 5800mm, width usually be 1220mm and 1500mm.after cutting the steel coils into
steel plate, we can do black paints on the surface of the plate to make the plate to be anti-rust.
