ZAM Walkway System: 2024 News Roundup
2025-01-05
🛡️ ZAM Walkway Systems: Core Technical Advantages
The widespread attention ZAM walkway systems received in 2024 stems from the material’s inherent performance benefits, particularly in harsh environments such as coastal areas, deserts, and industrial zones.
| Performance Aspect | Key Advantages & Data | Long‑Term Value for Power Plants |
|---|---|---|
| Corrosion Resistance | Zinc‑aluminum‑magnesium alloy coating provides 5‑10 times the corrosion resistance of conventional hot‑dip galvanized steel. Pangang products show no red rust after 4,000 hours of salt‑spray testing; U.S. Steel’s ZMAG™ product also offers a 25‑year warranty. | Greatly extends walkway service life in acidic, high‑humidity, and salt‑spray environments. Plant owners no longer need to worry about premature rust‑induced failure. |
| Self‑Healing Ability | Scratches or cut edges on the material surface automatically form a dense protective film that prevents further corrosion. | Prevents small installation or cutting damage from becoming corrosion initiation points, significantly reducing later maintenance and replacement costs. |
| Long Life & Low Cost | Service life typically reaches 25‑30 years. The life‑cycle cost (LCOH) is lower than that of FRP, aluminum alloy, and other materials. | Eliminates the need to replace walkways during the plant’s 25‑year life, saving repeat procurement and installation labour, offering better long‑term economics. |
| High Strength & Easy Fabrication | High yield strength (up to 550 MPa) and roll‑formed, modular designs simplify installation. | Reduces load stress on roof structures (especially commercial/industrial roofs) and significantly shortens construction periods. |
📰 2024 Key News for ZAM Walkway Systems
Large‑scale adoption in multiple PV projects – ZAM walkway panels moved from concept to real‑world application. For example, in August 2024, the Shanxi Xingping Industrial Park Clean Energy PV Power Generation Project issued a dedicated procurement plan for ZAM walkway panels. Similarly, in November 2024, Shanxi Road & Bridge Group included “zinc‑aluminum‑magnesium” steel products in its procurement list for a highway‑side distributed PV project, demonstrating ZAM walkways’ penetration into large‑scale installations.
