Zinco International has entered into a 10-year partnership arrangement to supply & license equipment to Valmont Coatings who are Australia’s largest hot dip galvanizing Company with operations also in New Zealand. Valmont Coatings will utilise specialist ultrasonic technology developed by Zinco International to measure the corrosion of galvanizing kettles using its Zinc Immersion Probe (ZIP).
Commenting on the new partnership Aaron King – Vice President Asia Pacific, Valmont Coatings said “Zinco International have extensive strength & knowledge in this area and are a leading contractor in corrosion profiling of zinc kettles. Having our own equipment in Country will allow our own personnel to carry out regular safety checks to maximize use of equipment and limit downtime”.
The benefits of the ZIP system is that there is no loss of production and provides the galvanizer with accurate data to allow for future use of their equipment.
David Watkins, CEO of Zinco International commented “We are delighted to enter into a new long-term relationship with Valmont Coatings Australia which is testament to the knowledge we have and the technology we have developed”. He added “the equipment is now in Australia and training of Valmont’s personnel began in January 2022.” For further licensing information please email david@zincointernational.com
