A real-life corrosion test was recently conducted, in which SSAB’s Galfan clearly outshone competing coating materials in terms of its ability to resist corrosion. This becomes clearly evident in structures that have formed shapes. The test result showed that Galfan is up to 3.8 times more resistant to corrosion compared to other tested zinc based coatings.

To meet the global demand for sustainable building material that also provides enhanced performance, SSAB has introduced GreenCoat Crown BT for durability and high color retention in roofs and wall claddings. Featuring a coating made with sustainable Swedish rapeseed oil, this new product is part of the GreenCoat® premium steel product range, which is currently the greenest collection of color coated steel products for the building industry.

Global steel company SSAB has established an agreement on collaboration with Turku University of Applied Sciences (TUAS) in a student project in which an e-rallycross car is built. The e-rallycross car project serves as a research, experiment and learning environment where students from different fields learn in collaboration with companies.
