What is PPGI Material?

PPGI, Pre-Painted Galvanized Iron, and PPGL are color-coated steels made from cold-rolled or galvanized steel substrates coated with organic paints. They are widely used in the construction and manufacturing industries for their aesthetics, rust resistance, and workability. Wanzhi Steel has provided many solutions to appliance manufacturers and roof and wall fabricators in over 100 countries.

What Are the PPGI Material Types?

According to different production needs and application scenarios of customers, Wanzhi can provide customers with different types, specifications, and grades of PPGI materials. PPGI thickness: 0.12-1.5mm, width: 600-1250mm, grades meet ASTM, EN standards.

White – Coil
Red – Sheet

PPGI Coil: Continuous strip PPGI material, suitable for customers with processing equipment and factories, can be cut into various shapes according to needs.

PPGI Sheet: The sizes and shapes are cut in the factory after color coating, which is suitable for customers who are inconvenient to install directly and process on site.

What Substrates are Available for PPGI Materials?

PPGI’s substrates include GI/GL/SPCC/SPCD/SPCE/DC01-DC07/Q195, Q215, Q235. However, Cold Rolled Plate (CRP) is rarely used because of its high cost, lower production efficiency, and lower corrosion resistance than other types of substrates. The most popular substrates for color-coated steel are GI and GL. PPGI substrates are available in hot-dip galvanized and electro-galvanized.


Hot-dip galvanized: thick zinc coating, high corrosion protection, but not suitable for decorative applications.

Electro-galvanized: thin zinc coating, flat surface, suitable for applications with low corrosion protection.

What Coatings are Available for PPGI Materials?

Coating of PPGI materials can increase the corrosion resistance of steel, beautify the appearance of PPGI products, increase processability, service life and some other properties.

Coating of PPGI Types

First, in terms of performance, different types of coatings have different application scenarios, performance, cost, and service life.

PE: Suitable for general use such as indoors, easy to process and low cost, can last about 15 years.
HDP: Compared with PE, it has better corrosion resistance and weather resistance, suitable for outdoor use, and can last about 20 years.
SMP: Compared with PE coating, it has better durability and can last about 20 years.
PVDF: Advanced coating, known for its excellent weather resistance, chemical resistance, and corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor environments with high decorative requirements, and can last about 25 years.

Pattern of PPGI

Wanzhi’s PPGI is applied by roller coating, spray coating and other methods. In addition to the coating type and color, you can also customize different patterns. We already have more than 200 color coating patterns and we provide customers with PPGI pattern customization services.

What is the PPGI Material Used for?

PPGI material has been widely used in various industries due to its lightweight, aesthetic and rust-resistant characteristics. Color-coated steels made of different substrates are also popular in the advertising, construction, home appliance, and transportation industries.

Construction: PPGI and PPGL made of hot-dip galvanized and hot-dip aluminized zinc sheets are used for corrugated boards, sandwich panels, steel structures, roofs, walls, doors, and windows of buildings.
Home Appliances: PPGI made from electro-galvanized sheets and cold rolled sheets can be made into refrigerators, washing machines, and other electrical appliances and furniture.
Transportation: The same electro-galvanized substrates are used in the transportation industry for the production of car interiors.

Which is Better PPGI or PPGL?

Same color-coated steel, which is better, PPGI or PPGL? PPGL has better performance and PPGI is more competitively priced. Both PPGI and PPGL are high-quality building materials and are widely used in interior and exterior building decoration, so how to choose the right color-coated steel according to the project location, and budget?

Green Wrinkle – PPGL
Yellow – PPGI

Cost: PPGI is lower cost and more competitively priced.

Processability: PPGI has better processability. (Aluminum-zinc alloys are harder than zinc.)

Corrosion Resistance: PPGL has higher corrosion resistance and longer service life.

Strength: For the same thickness, PPGL is stronger. (Aluminum is less dense than zinc.)

Surface: It is difficult to distinguish between PPGI and PPGL from the surface.

What is the Price of PPGI Material de?

The price of PPGI material is affected by many factors, such as the thickness of the zinc coating on the substrate, the type of coating, the coating thickness, the width of the steel sheet, etc. The price of PPGI material varies from factory processing to traders. The price of PPGI material is different between factory and trader prices. Wanzhi is a factory direct sales, you can leave a message to tell us what you need, and we will provide a free quotation.

Where to Buy PPGI Material?

The advantages of purchasing PPGI nearby are quick turnaround time and a wide range of choices at low prices from the factory. If the demand is small, and the color and pattern requirements are not much, you can choose to buy locally with better cost performance. If you need a large quantity and have color and pattern requirements, you can buy from the factory, and the factory can give you a wholesale price.
