German steelmaker thyssenkrupp has represented its high-quality zinc-magnesium coated steels under the brand ZM Ecoprotect® Solar for effective corrosion protection of high-performance photovoltaic mounting systems.
With the expansion of hot-dip coating line No. 6 by adding new melting pots, thyssenkrupp Steel has increased its production capacities for zinc-magnesium products and thus meeting the growing demand for ZM-coated steels for the solar market. ZM Ecoprotect® solar-coated steels will be available with extended coating thicknesses and dimensions in the future.
The company’s portfolio for the solar market also includes organic coil-coated steels pladur® for housings and paneling of solar applications. ZM Ecoprotect® Solar and pladur® are also available as carbon-reduced bluemint® steels to support climate protection.
