A spokesperson from Galco said: "It is a perfect opportunity for you to see how the domestic galvanizing industry contributes to building Ireland. This will also mark the opening of our new galvanizing plat in Dublin which will add 40% extra capacity."
Hot dip galvanizing is a highly controlled factory led process, and anything from small components up to large structural sections can be galvanized.
Whether it be for agriculture, street furniture, transport, utilities, construction, or the energy sectors – these are products for all spheres of life, even your garden gate.
