Differences between PPGI and PPGL

PPGI and PPGL are two different types of coated steel products that are widely used in various industrial and construction applications. Both PPGI and PPGL are made by coating a base metal with a layer of paint or protective film, but there are some key differences between the two.

Different base metals used for the coating

PPGI stands for pre-painted galvanized iron, while PPGL stands for pre-painted galvalume steel. PPGI is made by coating a layer of paint on top of a galvanized iron sheet, while PPGL is made by coating a layer of paint on top of a galvalume steel sheet.

Galvanized iron is a type of steel that has been coated with a layer of zinc to protect it from corrosion. This makes it an ideal base metal for PPGI because the zinc layer provides an excellent surface for the paint to adhere to. Galvalume steel, on the other hand, is a type of steel that has been coated with a layer of aluminum and zinc. This makes it more resistant to corrosion compared to galvanized iron and provides a stronger base for the paint to adhere to.

Different types of paint used for coating

PPGI is typically coated with polyester or SMP (silicone-modified polyester) paint.

PPGL is coated with PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) paint.

Different applications

PPGI is mostly used for indoor applications such as roofing, ceiling tiles, and wall panels.

PPGL is more suitable for outdoor applications such as roofing, cladding, and gutters.

PGI and PPGL are two different types of coated steel products. Overall, the choice between PPGI and PPGL will depend on various factors such as the application, budget, and color requirements.
