    1) Magnelis forms a very dense zinc-based protective film unlike galvanized coatings which have a more porous film. 2) This dense film provides protection to the whole structure, covering edges, welds, scratches and perforations where the coating is not present initially. 3) When exposed to the environment, the Magnelis film migrates over any red rust that forms on uncoated zones, converting it to white rust and protecting the steel substrate beneath.

    When exposed to the environment, Magnelis® rust will be gradually covered by the Magnelis® film.

    This unique dense film is also formed on edges, provides perfect protection of the whole structure,
    welds, perforations and scratches. In case some red even on the uncoated edges, scratches and
    rust was present on these uncoated zones, the red perforations.

    Initial exposure period (up to several weeks*)
    The exposed cut end of the substrate is oxidised
    and forms red rust.

    Subjected to rain and condensation (beyond several weeks*)
    The zinc-based film containing magnesium on
