What are the Requirements for Metal Wall Cladding Materials?
Metal wall cladding materials are commonly used for building facades, interior walls, etc., mainly to achieve decorative and protective effects.
- The wall cladding should protect the building.
- Wall cladding materials should have a certain degree of impact resistance, such as wind pressure, impact, etc
- It should be waterproof to prevent rainwater penetration.
- Be aesthetically pleasing and decorative.
Why Use Galvanized Steel Coil for Wall Covering Material?
Wall cladding material choices, commonly used materials are galvanized steel, ceramic plate, slate, aluminum alloy plate, etc., which galvanized steel low cost, long service life, and cost-effective gradually become one of the popular wall cladding materials.
Advantages of galvanized wall panels
- Corrosion resistance: The zinc coating protects the steel from oxidation by oxygen, water, and other substances that cause rust, suitable for outdoor construction.
- High strength: Steel panels are characterized by high strength and hardness.
- Lightweight: Galvanized steel wall panels are lighter than traditional wall coverings.
- Toughness: Galvanized steel can be cut, welded, bent, and stamped.
- Aesthetically pleasing: The metallic color is aesthetically pleasing and durable.
- Easy to install: The modular design of metal wall panels reduces construction costs.
Galvanized Wall Panel Shapes
Different surface shapes not only enhance the aesthetics of a building, but also improve ventilation, waterproofing, and durability. Wanzhi Group produces galvanized wall panels in a variety of materials and shapes and supports customization according to design drawings.
- Flat Panel
- Corrugated Wall Panel
- Trapezoidal Wall Panel

What is Galvanized Steel as Wall Panels Used for?
Galvanized wall panels are made of cold-rolled steel or hot-rolled steel through the hot dip galvanizing process and then formed into panels with a special surface structure, which is mainly used for building facades, interior walls, ceilings, etc…
- Exterior: industrial buildings, homes, warehouses, shopping centers, etc.
- Interior walls: interior walls of high-grade buildings, offices, and houses.
How to Choose Galvanized Wall Cladding Material?
When choosing a wall covering material, firstly consider the application environment of the building project, the structural requirements, the need for thermal insulation, heat preservation, fire protection, etc., and then combine with the budget to choose the metal material, coating thickness, shape of the sheet, processing technology, etc.
- Substrate: cold rolled steel, hot rolled steel
- Zinc coating thickness: z30-z350g, 40–150 microns
- Sheet thickness: 0.15-6mm
- Width: 600-1250
- Surface treatment: oiled, passivated, chromate, phosphate, painted.
- Installation: Snap-in, bolt-in, plug-in and slot-in connection
Metal Wall Cladding Materials VS Traditional Materials
In addition to metal wall cladding panels, there are other common wall coverings such as ceramic panels, slate panels, aluminum panels, wood panels, and so on. Metal panels are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to install and transport, while other materials are indispensable for building materials because of their resistance to pressure and better stability.
