K Span is known as a new anti-leak solution for buildings thanks to the steel material PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing system helps eliminate the risk of water leakage for the building. Moreover, the durability in them also supports the system becoming sustainable to inclement weather as well as providing flexibility in disassembly and relocation.Definition K Span system and its applicationK Span is the typical name for the dome structure in construction, these domes are manufactured by the forming equipment that makes them reach their full curvature and then the manufacturer will deliver them to the construction site. The entire K Span is a combination of individual pieces of corrugated iron that are connected together by a specialized jointing system, so that the pieces are tightly linked without the need for screws. Normally, the main raw material for making up corrugated iron pieces in K Span is galvanized steel or pre-painted galvanized/galvalume steel (PPGI/PPGL).The K Span system is used a lot in the field of construction, many businesses often apply them to make roofs for civil buildings, houses, barns in agriculture, in addition they can be installed as a hangar or entertainment infrastructure,...Important effects of PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing systemAesthetics and durability are one of the outstanding advantages of pre-painted galvanized/galvalume steel. Therefore, the application of PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing system has brought a series of beneficial values to the project.Simple construction for contractorSimilar to pre-engineered steel buildings, K Span owns a simple construction structure when they are an overall combination of PPGI/PPGL pieces linked through a joint system. The K Span foundation is built on an extended concrete strip surrounding the building, so the contractor will not need to drive fixed piles or beams during construction.In addition, the main structural components of K Span come from PPGI/PPGI steel, which significantly reduces the weight of the construction compared to traditional brick materials. Thanks to its light weight as well as the simplicity in installing, a K Span system can be set up in almost all soil conditions while still ensuring good stability.Flexibility in design with PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing systemThe K Span dome is a combination of a series of coated steel linked together and they are divided according to each span. Thanks to this flexibility, the contractor can arbitrarily change the length of the roofing as desired as they can be dismantled in individual spans. If the building is built with traditional bricks, when the contractor wants to shorten or dismantle it, it will affect the entire structure.Shorten the time for completing projectK Span is considered a system to help improve the construction process quickly because the main structural components are steel and often steel will be produced directly at the factory. After the factory has done the material as required, these parts are moved directly to the construction site, which inadvertently saves the contractor a lot of time during the building process.According to average statistics, a construction team with a number of 10 - 20 people can complete a whole installation of 500m2 per day for a K Span system by assembling the parts together accordingly. Compared with traditional construction methods, construction crews often have to spend more time in mixing mortar and disposing cement.Eliminate the risk of water leakageIn the past, traditional roofs made of mortar or bricks would be prone to leaks because of long standing water absorption. It can be seen that steel is a material that helps to resolve this situation because steel is metal in nature, so it will not absorb liquids. Possessing a K Span dome system will help users feel more secure about waterproofing.In addition, during the production process, the PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing system don't create any holes in the surface, there is no chance for rainwater to enter. Tthe curvature of the dome is a great design that provides good drainage when it rains or in snowy environments.High tolerance in the inclement weatherThe applications of steel in construction, especially the PPGI/PPGL in K Span roofing system is often added with galvanized layers to resist scratches as well as increase durability, prevent oxidizing agents due to chemical reaction by zinc. A project with the K Span system will require less frequent maintenance, thereby making conditions for contractors to save on periodic maintenance costs as well as limiting unwanted cost in repair during the process of using.Eco-friendly recyclingConstruction steel is considered a useful material when it can be recycled and reused consecutively throughout its life cycle without being affected by the internal structure. After a long time of use, the contractor can choose to disassemble the pieces of PPGI/PPGL in the K Span roofing system to manufacture other applications.Choose a reputable company to provide PPGI/PPGL in K Span roofing systemClimate change is becoming more obviously forthcoming such as abnormal sunshine and rain as well as high humidity, which directly affects construction works. Therefore, choosing a quality material for your construction project will be the right choice to gain long-term efficiency to the contractors.Understanding the needs of customers, MRS Steel is here to help you find solutions in choosing quality PPGI/PPGL steel materials that come directly from large manufacturers in Vietnam. All our PPGI/PPGL steel products are certified for clear origin, thereby helping you to be more secure in the trading process between the two countries.If you want to find out information about PPGI/PPGL steel as well as check product price information from manufacturers, please contact Whatsapp:+84 76 911 2358 or email vanloc@mrssteel. com.vn

Thanks to astute foreign policies and a favorable geographical location, Vietnam has reaped benefits in trade agreements. Among the prominently advantaged industries, the steel sector consistently ranks among the highest annual export volumes in the country. Therefore, importing steel from Vietnam not only provides cost advantages but also ensures product quality for importers.Geographical location creates favorable conditions for importing steel from VietnamIn terms of its maritime geographical location, Vietnam holds the advantage of being situated in the South Sea, which is considered a vital maritime route connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Additionally, its strategic location amidst key markets such as China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, India, and various other ASEAN countries positions Vietnam as a hub for maritime and trade activities. This not only opens up numerous opportunities for the import and export of various goods but also actively involves Vietnam in the global steel supply chain.Continuous investment in logisticsOver the years, the Vietnamese government has consistently invested in and upgraded seaports to facilitate import and export activities, aiming to reduce transportation times and alleviate bottlenecks in the flow of goods. As a result, the transportation duration of steel has significantly shortened, creating favorable conditions for steel brands originating from Vietnam to become more prevalent in various regions.Specifically, the average transportation time for goods to the Southeast Asia region has now been reduced to 5-10 days, and the shipping time from Vietnamese ports to Australia takes only 15-20 days. While Europe is considered a large market with a relatively distant geographical distance from Vietnam, significant improvements in logistics have reduced the average transportation time to just 30 days.In contrast, the geographical distance to the Americas is considerable, requiring a longer transit time, typically ranging from 45 to 60 days for steel products to reach their destination. Although geographical distance poses a challenge, in certain special cases, delivery time can become a crucial tool in pricing strategies, especially during periods of fluctuation in the domestic steel market. Specifically, during periods of high domestic steel prices, the decision for importing steel from Vietnam can bring significant benefits to importers in the Americas, providing them with a steel supply at a competitive price compared to competing counterparts and thereby reducing cost pressures.Importing steel from Vietnam brings tariff advantages via FTA agreementsAs of now, Vietnam has 19 FTA partners, including 15 active FTAs, such as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). This allows Vietnamese steel products to enjoy a 0% import tariff within the customs framework of the 11 participating countries. Moreover, Vietnam successfully signed the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA). The EVFTA stands out from other trade agreements Vietnam has signed, granting nearly 100% tariff reductions for import and export transactions with 27 EU member countries.In addition to these agreements, Vietnam has established various trade agreements and comprehensive economic partnerships with countries and regions such as the Economic Cooperation Organization, the United Kingdom, South Korea, Japan, Chile,... These agreements not only provide tariff advantages for Vietnamese steel but also create opportunities for price competition, benefiting both sellers and buyers by ensuring reasonable product prices.Flexible strategy in response to anti-dumping investigationsThe steel industry is considered a key industrial sector for many countries and numerous markets have sought to protect domestic steel products through various protective measures such as tariff barriers and anti-dumping duties. Vietnam, as one of the fastest-growing steel markets globally, has attracted attention from other countries, leading to anti-dumping investigations. However, most anti-dumping cases related to Vietnamese steel products are currently in the form of investigations due to suspicions regarding the origin of raw materials originating from China.Through flexibility and timely adjustments in export strategies, Vietnam has maintained its status as an ideal destination for steel importers. Diversifying markets and adapting quickly to international trade regulations have helped minimize risks associated with dependency on a specific market and legal issues, providing favorable conditions for positioning Vietnamese steel on the international market.Large-capacity factories equipped with modern production linesThe Vietnamese steel market has witnessed the emergence of many large-capacity manufacturing plants with substantial investments in advanced technology from the world's leading Danieli-Tenova technology. These plants not only meet domestic demand but also have the capacity to export to international markets. Notable examples include Hoa Sen, Hoa Phat, Nam Kim, Ton Dong A, Tôn Phương Nam - SSSC, SMC, Vina One Steel,...Hoa Sen Group leads in coated steel in Vietnam with a pickling capacity of 1.9 million tons per year and a NOF line capacity of 2.2 million tons per year. On the other hand, Hoa Phat Group has consistently held the top position in steel pipe and construction steel for many years. Each year, the complex of factories supplies a production capacity of 2.5 million tons for steel billets and steel bars, achieving a production capacity of 1 million tons per year for steel pipes. Additionally, Hoa Phat's HRC products are considered future key products with a designed total capacity of 3 million tons per year.Thanks to advancements in the production process, domestic steel manufacturers meet all the conditions to produce high-quality steel brands that meet international requirements for size, weight, flexibility, and load-bearing capacity. Steel products before export meet all quality standard certifications, including JIS from Japan, ASTM from the United States, BN from the United Kingdom and AS from Australia. Most domestic steel manufacturing plants are certified to the latest ISO 9001:2015 quality standard, demonstrating not only a solid step forward in quality but also evidence of effective production and management capabilities.Importing steel from Vietnam through reputable suppliersThe remarkable transformation of the Vietnamese steel industry in recent years has attracted many international importers, contributing significant export value. MRS Steel is a prime example of a company actively participating in this process. With many years of experience in the steel industry, MRS Steel has established extensive relationships with major manufacturers such as Hoa Phat, Hoa Sen, Ton Dong A, SMC, ensuring a diverse supply of high-quality products meeting stringent standards for durability and coating thickness.MRS Steel is not a steel supplier but also provides solutions for importing steel from Vietnam, which actively support partners by advising on suitable steel products for projects and ensuring that manufacturing plants meet requirements, thereby helping customers optimize costs for their plans while receiving a source of quality products.

Galvanized steel is one of the materials that are resistant to corrosion and good aesthetics should be used in many different industries and construction. One of the most popular types of galvanized steel is the Z350, featuring an outer protective layer providing a 'fence' against environmental factors. 1. What is Z350 galvanized steel?Galvanized steel is a type of steel coated with a layer of hot-dip zinc to enhance its outer surface. They are produced by hot-dip galvanizing at a temperature of 500oC or electroplating so that it corresponds to the desired thickness to increase the durability and aesthetics of the material.Z350 steel corresponds to a zinc coating with a mass of 350 grams/m2 on both sides of the steel. Its corrosion resistance and high durability make it suitable for construction, household appliances, transportation and various industries.2. Characteristics of Z350 galvanized steelThe construction industry and light industry account for about 30% of the need for galvanized demand, so you can easily see applications from Z350 steel in life. Why are they so popular and widely utilized?Corrosion resistanceGalvanization is one of the most effective and economical steel protection methods for preventing rust. Currently, half of the world's zinc production is used for this process. Zinc not only provides a thick protective layer on the steel surface but also protects the steel through cathodic protection. If using products under normal conditions, the lifespan of Z350 steel structures can exceed 50 years and in corrosive environments or near the sea, it can still last around 20-25 years or more.High hardnessThe outstanding hardness of Z350 steel provides outstanding load-bearing capacity. Even in transportation with impacts, it does not compromise the quality, structure or lifespan of the galvanized steel.Fast production process, easy inspection The process of producing Z350 steel is simple, easy to control quality, allowing factories to fulfill orders promptly.Cost optimizationThe cost of producing galvanized steel is quite optimal thanks to the cheap zinc coating, short galvanizing time, high durability, easy storage, ... resulting in long-term cost savings.3. Application of Z350 steel in modern industriesZ350 galvanized steel products are mainly used in construction, light industry, cars, agriculture, animal husbandry, fishery and many other industries. Construction industries use galvanized steel to produce corrosion-resistant roofing sheets, construction mesh,... Meanwhile, the light industry utilizes Z350 steel for household appliance casings, chimneys kitchen appliances, ... In addition, in the automotive industry, this material is also popular in car anti-corrosion components,... In agriculture, galvanized steel is mainly used for cold storage, transportation or packaging tools.4.

The barn is used for many purposes like protecting livestock, storing animal feed, agricultural products or machinery against the environmental elements. Currently, farm owners tend to use PPGI as a barn instead of wood or concrete because of many outstanding advantages.1. Characteristics of barns in agricultureIn the field of agriculture, warehouses are usually designed with 2 floors, the first floor is a shelter for animals or storage of production machinery and equipment. The 2nd floor area is used to store animal feed, agricultural products or other utensils.The barns are named according to the purpose of use, such as tobacco barn, dairy barn, farm barn, tractor barn. The most principal type in the United States is the multipurpose barn, used for housing horses, cows, calves, sheep or storing hay and grain.Wood is the main material in traditional barns, but since World War II, pre-painted galvanized is more increasingly used, especially in large farms because of the advantages of aesthetics, durability and costs.2. Building barn with PPGIWhen building a barn, the roof, door and insulation are essential components that are first considered. The materials that make up these parts of the warehouse will greatly affect the effectiveness of protecting livestock, agricultural products and machinery from the effects of the environment and weather.2.1. RoofThe roof is one of the most important components of the barn because of its role of creating shade, shading the sun and rain and keeping the interior temperature. Most roofs today are constructed from PPGI sheets. With a high-grade coating that does not peel, is durable over time, has the ability to block heat to help keep the interior space cool and temperature stable. Compared to shingles that need to be re-glued every 12-15 years or the wood is prone to rotting, pre-painted galvanized sheets have a long life expectancy, are extremely water and corrosion resistant.2.2. Barn doorThe barn door should be easy to open and to secure. When the weather is favorable, the doors can be fully opened to ventilate the interior space, enhancing the exchange of fresh air for the animals to breathe. The PPGI barn door is very light, easily slides on the rail, saving you time and effort when opening and closing the door.2.3. Thermal and soundproof partition wallsWood, concrete and brick are good insulators but have poor sound insulation. Animals such as horses, cows, sheep,... are very sensitive to sounds, easily panic and lose control in noisy environments. Therefore, ranchers are gradually turning to PPGI to make soundproof walls for different types of barns.3. Advantages of PPGI barn 3.1. Moisture ResistanceHumidity and severe weather can affect the structural integrity of the barn. Wood is porous, absorbent and prone to decay over time while galvanized steel is more resistant to water, rust and corrosion.3.2. Longer lifespanWith wooden barns easily damaged by insects and birds, causing termites or nesting on the rafters. Steel buildings can limit these problems as well as avoid degradation due to burrowing insects.3.3. Fire ResistanceThe surface of PPGI is covered with special fireproof layers to help steel frame buildings have high fire resistance, slow down the spread of fire. Types of barns in foreign countries need to pay insurance levels in case of fire and explosion. Therefore, although wooden warehouses are lower in cost, in the long run, steel buildings have better insurance costs which helps to optimize overall costs.3.4. Strength and durabilityPPGI sheets are durable, withstand heavy loads but are lighter than many other building materials. The barns made from steel are 30-50% lighter than wood. This helps the construction of steel frames and building details save more time and manpower than traditional materials.4. How to choose the right PPGI for the barnIf you are in the process of planning and looking for building materials suitable for your barn properties, please contact MRS Steel's team of experts for detailed advice.MRS Steel is a unit specializing in providing high quality Vietnamese steel import solutions in addition to consulting and analyzing the most suitable steel for each project.
