In real life, durability is influenced by many other parameters
which require additional protection
Climatic variations Product variations - ISO1461 and EN10346

Extensive product behaviour knowledge
has been collected for Magnelis® coating
• We have tested Magnelis® in various types of
environments covering the range of corrosion
categories
– Rural
– Urban
– Industrial

– Marine
– Tropical
– Deserts (coastal, continental…)
– Floating (fresh / brackish / sea)
Field sites where Magnelis® is tested
• Similar approach for corrosion in soils (geological,
physical, chemical & electrical parameters) What we measure on atmospheric field tests:
Average improvement:
~ 3 compared to regular
galvanised steel
12
Improved protection of perforated steels
(surface & cut edges) with Magnelis®
6 months 1 year 2 years 4 years 5 years 7 years 10 years

Magnelis® ZM310
possible use in C5
corrosion category
with 15 years of
expected lifetime
Edges:
• Edges can remain unprotected
with ZM310 or ZM430 up to 6.0
mm thickness
• No aesthetical requirement &
corrosion allowance
