To protect your stadium and bleachers for years to come, request Southern Bleacher's award-winning Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating.
Although the galvanized coating process was developed in the early 18th century and introduced in the United States in the 1850's, its long-term benefits are second to none.
The Cost of corrosion protection per square foot of steel has attracted the attention of specifiers, engineers and corrosion consultants.
These professionals choose the time-proven metallurgical bonding of steel and zinc over the less durable raw steel with paint finish.

| As you can see on the chart above, paint applied to raw steel has only a barrier finish. Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating is a metallurgical bonding. |
Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating is consistent over the steel members. When the paint wears on thin edges, the raw steel is exposed and rusts. |

| Transportation and erection of Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel is not plagued with scratches because it is abrasion resistant and self healing. Scratches on raw steel with paint finish react like tooth decay. |
The value of a stadium includes its life cycle and the maintenance dollars required to preserve its appearance and durability. Galvanized steel protects the stadium from costly maintenance caused by certain environmental conditions for a much longer period of time. |
