From an empty plot to steady production, led by an engineer who has built galvanizing plants and runs them today.
You Have the Capital.
The Plant Does Not Exist Yet.
A galvanizing plant is decided in its first drawings: the kettle size fixes what you can sell for as long as that kettle stands, and the tank line and cranes fix how much of it you can sell per shift. This page is for the people who make that decision once.
Six Stages,
One Responsible Engineer
Feasibility and market
What your market will send you: article sizes, steel types, tonnage and seasons. The answer sets the kettle, and the kettle sets everything else.
Layout and sizing
Kettle and tank-line sizing, crane coverage, material flow from black steel to dispatch, and room left for the expansion you will want later.
Equipment and procurement
Specifications, supplier quotations compared on the same basis, and the purchase of the complete line, from the furnace to fume extraction.
Building and utilities
Foundations and the steel building, power and gas, water and drainage, acid storage, and supervision of the civil work against the layout.
Environment and safety
Fume and effluent handling designed in from the first drawing, with the documents your authorities and your customers will ask for.
Commissioning and ramp-up
Trial runs, operator training and first production, with zinc reconciliation, records and KPIs in place from the first commercial batch.

Start With
a First Sizing
HDG Plant Design turns an output target and a market into a sized plant and a first capital-cost estimate. It is a starting figure for a conversation, not a quotation. Open the tool, free and with no sign-up, or read Part III of the book, which covers building a plant chapter by chapter.
Tell Us the Market, the Site and the Timing
One email is enough to start. Say what you intend to galvanize, where the plant would stand and when you want it producing, and you will get a straight answer on what it takes.
