In our process, we do not use ordinary zinc powder, but a mixture we developed which consists of zinc-powder and other materials. We call this unique mixture – Vitamin.
Using our mixture and materials is crucial for achieving our outstanding corrosion-resistance results, and that is the only way our clients can use Distek™ (ArmorGalv®)’s name and technical support.
Though it is an option, we usually do not provide ready-to-use powder but only the Vitamin and powder-mixing machine. The client buys zinc powder (which is under our approval) in the local market and mixes the Vitamin with the zinc powder with a ratio of 25% Vitamin and 75% zinc powder.
This way, the client can make the precise required quantities for short periods and use a fresh mixture, which leads to better results. If we provide a ready-to-use mixture, it would be transported for a long time at sea, and after, be stored for a few more months. This way is also significantly cheaper since zinc powder is always less expensive at the local market, and related expenses (shipping, customs, and so) are also reduced.
