Certified Coating, Guaranteed Durability—Compliant with IS 4759:1996

In today’s demanding construction, infrastructure, and engineering sectors, corrosion protection is not just an option—it’s a necessity. Structural steel components are the backbone of industrial and civil infrastructure.

In today’s demanding construction, infrastructure, and engineering sectors, corrosion protection is not just an option—it’s a necessity. Structural steel components are the backbone of industrial and civil infrastructure. However, their long-term performance relies heavily on effective surface protection, especially against corrosion. That’s where**** BIS for Zinc Coating —specifically compliant with IS 4759:1996—plays a critical role.

With the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) offering a clear benchmark for zinc coating quality, products bearing the ISI mark signal unmatched performance and longevity. At EVTL India, we empower manufacturers to meet these national standards with ease, ensuring every steel component is certified, protected, and built to last.


What is IS 4759:1996?

IS 4759:1996 is the Indian Standard for hot-dip zinc coatings on structural steel and allied products. It lays down the requirements for:

  • The thickness of the zinc coating
  • Surface preparation and finishing
  • Adhesion properties
  • Coating uniformity
  • Resistance to corrosion and environmental wear

Whether used in bridges, towers, poles, frames, or industrial frameworks, steel components coated as per this standard offer superior protection against rust and degradation, especially in aggressive environments.

When a product carries the ISI mark under IS 4759:1996, it assures buyers, contractors, and regulators that it meets stringent national criteria for safety, durability, and performance.


Why Certified Coating Matters

The tagline “Certified Coating, Guaranteed Durability” speaks directly to what IS 4759:1996 represents. It’s not merely about applying a protective layer—it’s about ensuring consistency, quality, and peace of mind.

Here’s why BIS-certified hot-dip zinc coatings are critical:

1. Long-Lasting Protection

Zinc serves as a sacrificial layer for steel, corroding first and protecting the base metal. A certified coating ensures uniform coverage and optimal thickness, providing long-term resistance to moisture, chemicals, and atmospheric exposure.

2. Regulatory Compliance

In India, government projects and infrastructure tenders often mandate the use of BIS-certified materials. Without the ISI mark, manufacturers may miss out on large-scale contracts or face regulatory penalties.

3. Enhanced Product Value

Products certified under IS 4759 stand out in a competitive market. End users know they are purchasing reliable, tested, and safe materials. The ISI mark boosts brand reputation and buyer confidence.

4. Lower Maintenance Costs

Certified galvanizing means less corrosion, fewer failures, and reduced need for maintenance or repainting over the lifespan of the product. This reduces operational costs for project owners.

5. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

Hot-dip galvanizing is environmentally responsible, as it extends the life of steel structures and minimizes resource wastage. Complying with IS standards also ensures safe disposal and process management.
