Recently, a Somali client placed an order with Wanzhi Group for 450 tons of PPGI corrugated sheet, which has been shipped in two batches. Currently, both shipments of color-coated corrugated sheets have departed China and are being transported by sea to the Port of Mogadishu in Somalia. We look forward to receiving feedback from the client upon product delivery. If you are also interested in subsequent client feedback, please feel free to contact us or follow our updates.
Customer Order Requirements
The client is a well-established local trading company that sources products overseas for domestic distribution. In August, the client visited our factory independently (located in Boxing County, Binzhou City, Shandong Province, China—one of the country’s major hubs for coated steel production). Our factory staff guided the client through our production lines, sample room, quality inspection facility, and displayed samples of coated steel previously shipped to Africa. The client immediately placed a 450-ton order with us, agreed to be delivered in two batches.

PPGI Corrugated Sheets in Somalia
Somalia’s climate is hot, with severe salt corrosion in coastal areas. PPGI corrugated sheet, leveraging their unique advantages, have become the ideal choice for local construction. The customer procures PPGI steel for resale, thus imposing extremely high demands on the material. Through comparisons and quality inspections in our sample room, he selected the most cost-effective coating and thickness.
Advantages
- Superior Weather Resistance & Corrosion Protection: DX51D+Z30 galvanized substrate paired with PE coating creates “dual protection”—resisting erosion from high temperatures, humidity, and salinity.
- Exceptional UV Resistance: Organic coating significantly slows fading and chalking under sunlight exposure, with QUV testing ≥1500 hours.
- Lightweight, High Strength, Easy Installation: Thin gauge design (0.14-0.28mm) keeps single 1200mm corrugated sheets weighing only 3-6kg, ideal for rapid infrastructure construction.
- Cost-effective: Offers superior value compared to stainless steel roofing or color-coated sandwich panels.
Applications
- Roofing and wall cladding systems.
- Roofing for large-scale buildings.
- Agricultural structures: Livestock facilities, grain silos, etc.
