The new national standard GB/T 18226-2025 Technical Requirements for Corrosion Protection of Steel Components in Highway Traffic Engineering will be officially implemented on March 1, 2026. It unifies the specifications for core indicators such as classification, thickness, adhesion amount, adhesive force and salt spray resistance of corrosion protection coatings commonly used for W beam guardrails. The accurate collection is as follows.

Due to factors such as the lack of prominent contradictions in the steel industry, capital mostly flowing to varieties with restricted supply or incremental demand, sluggish speculative demand, and weak expectations, steel prices fluctuated slightly before the Spring Festival. Looking ahead to after the festival, the steel market still faces certain pressure. It is expected that the accumulation of steel inventories will be slightly lower than the same period last year, but weak market expectations and sluggish speculative demand will suppress prices. In addition, the supply of raw materials is loose, and ironmaking output is expected to recover slowly, leading to weakened cost support. However, market liquidity is abundant, and the country has continuously introduced steady growth policies, including support for real estate, infrastructure investment, and manufacturing. The market has strong expectations for the implementation of these policies, which will provide certain support for steel prices.

For steel exporters, proper packaging is more than just product protection—it’s a critical link in ensuring on-time delivery, complying with international regulations, and maintaining customer trust. Poor packaging can lead to costly damage (such as galvanized layer peeling, steel plate scratching, or coil deformation), customs delays due to non-compliant marking, or even cargo rejection by overseas customers, especially amid evolving global trade rules and stricter import inspections. This guide integrates the latest 2026 trade regulations, ASTM A700 packaging standards, and frontline industry best practices, covering common steel categories and mainstream export destinations, to help you optimize packaging solutions, reduce logistics risks, and enhance overall supply chain efficiency.

The implementation of China's steel export license management policy in 2026 marks the official entry of China's steel industry into a new era of "refined exports." This policy will not only reshape the global steel trade landscape but also profoundly influence the development path of China's steel industry itself. This article comprehensively analyzes the multiple impacts and future trends behind the policy from three dimensions: the global market, domestic industry, and policy logic.

Galvanized steel coils, as core products in steel products, are widely used in automotive manufacturing, home appliances, construction, new energy and other key fields. The refinement of their production process directly determines product quality. With the large-scale layout of three production bases, internationally advanced equipment configuration and full-process production capacity, Guangda Company has built a high-standard galvanized steel coil product line, demonstrating the strong strength of a comprehensive iron and steel enterprise. The following will take you into the galvanized steel coil production workshop to explain the four core links from raw materials to finished products.

A solar PV bracket is a core supporting component specially designed for placing, installing and fixing solar panels in a solar photovoltaic power generation system. It needs to ensure the stable operation of PV modules in different environments and has excellent performances such as wind resistance, snow resistance, corrosion resistance and aging resistance. Common materials include aluminum alloy, carbon steel and stainless steel. As a PV bracket manufacturer, the core material of our PV brackets is aluminum alloy.

Galvanized coils have been gaining increasing attention in the industrial sector, and particularly in the European market, the DX51D+Z European Standard Galvanized Coil has become a highly favored product due to its outstanding performance. What exactly makes it stand out among numerous products? This article will systematically break down its core characteristics, application scenarios, and key advantages, providing you with a comprehensive insight into the key reasons why this product has become the first choice for contractors and builders, as well as an in-depth understanding of its core value.

In the safety defense system of modern road traffic, corrugated guardrails have always been silent guardians standing firm. Yet, many people may not notice that those tiny accessories connecting beams and columns are the core determinants of whether this defense line is sturdy. As a matter of fact, the connection between guardrails and columns entirely relies on components like blockouts and brackets. The quality of their performance and the appropriateness of their selection directly impact whether the entire guardrail system can withstand challenges when it matters most.
