BIO Stefan Waste garbage can linings: Hot-dip galvanizing
Technically speaking, BIO Stefan garbage can boxes are hot-dip galvanized and then coated. But what does that mean?
In hot-dip galvanizing, the steel base material is immersed in a molten zinc bath (approx. 450°C). After dripping off, a more or less thin zinc layer remains as a coating. This forms both active and passive corrosion protection: the thin layer protects the base metal from moisture (passive) and also acts as a sacrificial anode (active). The steel underneath the zinc coating is protected from corrosion until the zinc is completely consumed. The zinc coating is bright shiny when fresh. Over time, as a result of corrosion, it forms a patina, which makes the appearance darker and more matte.
So why don't the boxes look like galvanized sheet steel, as usual?
Hot-dip galvanized objects can also be coated with paint. To ensure that the paint adheres well, an adhesion promoter (primer) is usually applied beforehand. The color RAL 7016, in which all BIO Stefan are produced, adapts to almost any situation and constellation and guarantees a timeless, aesthetic look for many years to come!
