Galvanizers Association

Overview

Galvanizers Association (GA) has provided authoritative information and advice on hot dip galvanizing to users and potential users since it was first established in 1949. It is the representational body for the hot dip galvanizing industry in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. For many years, the company's advice and information has been used to educate and inform professionals within the construction industry. Hot dip galvanizing makes a vital contribution to the sustainable growth of the economy, protecting the huge investment provided by industry across a wide range of sectors year-on-year. GA were founder members of the RIBA CPD Providers Network and work closely with RIBA to continue to provide relevant information for specifiers across all sectors of the construction industry.

Factory Visit
Galvanizing Plant Tour
Hot dip galvanizing is a highly controlled factory led process and everything from small nuts and bolts to large structural sections can be galvanized. Whether it is for agriculture, transport, utilities or the energy sector, galvanizing plays an important role within our day-to-day lives.

As part of our RIBA CPD programme, Galvanizers Association is working with construction industry professionals to increase engagement with galvanizers within product development and at the early design phase of projects.

The free coordinated factory tour is a valuable opportunity to learn how to extend and improve your use of galvanizing.

3 key benefits:
- Understand the hot dip galvanizing process
- Make more informed corrosion protection decisions
- Design better structures

Booking a factory tour is easy, simple and quick. You will just need to complete the online form here: https://www.galvanizing.org.uk/factory-tours/book-plant-tour/
