Refurbishing Hot-Dipped Galvanized Products – Environmental Impacts in a Life Cycle Perspective

Rise IVF, a leading Swedish industrial research institute focusing on materials, processes and production systems within manufacturing and product development areas, recently completed a report titled the “Refurbishment of hot dip galvanized products – environmental impacts in a life cycle perspective.” Rise IVF’s goal was to form a basis for developing optimal maintenance routines for hot-dip galvanized infrastructure objects in the long term. The report studies life-cycle assessment, environmental impacts, and methods of refurbishment, including Induron Protective Coatings’s market-leading coatings method.
