Daniel Chopra - Managing Director, Doehle Danautic India Ltd said, "Doehle Danautic with its entrenchment in the maritime industry and global exposure, was acutely aware of the impact of corrosion on this industry.

Galvanizing myths and ZRC Facts:

  1. For over 150 years hot dip galvanizing has been considered the finite solution for corrosion protection. The invention of ZRC in 1952 became a game changer;
  2. Global socio-economic conditions have catapulted ZRC to its rightful role as a pre-eminent infrastructure savior and the job-site galvanizing solution.
  3. The proliferation of zinc rich paints has added to the general confusion of what constitutes galvanizing and zinc's role in the process. The key is 'galvanic' action.

ZRC an Eco Friendly Product:

Global warming and increased pollution are major concerns worldwide. There is a need to conserve depleting natural resources like Iron & steel which are used as widely as infrastructure materials. These precious natural and limited resources are destroyed by the hour due to irreversible nature of corrosion. These natural resources are on the verge of extinguishment and are non renewable.

The global economy is losing hundreds of billions of dollars annually due to the direct impact of corrosion. In many instances corrosion failures go well beyond economic losses, due to their dramatic and tragic consequences leading to loss of human life and harm to the environment.

ZRC Cold Galvanizing compounds are very user-friendly that can be applied via dipping, spraying or brushing and best of all, this can be done at the factory or the actual job site & are also non-hazardous for ground transportation and common carrier. ZRC products being such a versatile product its usage and application is vast & varied that can be successfully used wherever rusting takes place.
