  1. galvanized iron

    Galvanized iron refers to a type of iron or steel that has been coated with a protective layer of zinc to prevent rusting or corrosion. The process, known as galvanization, is done usually through a method called hot-dip galvanizing, where the iron or steel is submerged in molten zinc. The zinc bonds to the iron forming a protective layer which is highly resistant to weathering and damage. This makes galvanized iron ideal for outdoor structures and elements exposed to the elements.
