How to Choose the Right Color-Coated Coils for Livestock Buildings: 5 Key Considerations
In livestock facility construction, color-coated coils—as the core material of building envelopes—directly impact structural lifespan, operational costs, and animal welfare. Drawing on 23 years of industry expertise, we’ve identified critical selection criteria and common pitfalls to help you make informed decisions.
I. Essential Requirements for Livestock Facilities
Enhanced Corrosion Resistance:
Poultry/livestock environments expose materials to ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, etc. Standard galvanized steel rusts in 3-5 years.
Recommended: Galvalume substrate (coating ≥100g/m²) paired with high-weather-resistant or PVDF coatings for 20+ years of protection.
Thermal Performance Optimization:
Light-colored coatings (reflectivity >80%, e.g., light gray/ivory white) reduce indoor temperatures by 6–8°C in summer, cutting ventilation costs.
II. Solutions to Industry Pain Points
Issue 1: Premature coating chalking → Choose UV/salt spray-tested products.
Issue 2: Panel sagging → Substrate tolerance: Thickness deviation <±0.02mm; cold-bending equipment with ≥7 passes.
Issue 3: Color mismatch → Select production lines with online spectrophotometers (ΔE≤1.5 for batch consistency).
III. Four-Step Quality Verification
Traceability: Verify coating weight, yield strength, etc., with suppliers.
Factory Audit: Confirm production capabilities.
Performance Tests:
T-bend test (<2T without cracks).
Pencil hardness ≥HB.
Regional Customization:
Coastal areas: Add backside coating.
Arctic zones: Use low-temperature-flexible paints.
IV. Long-Term Value
High-performance coatings reduce maintenance by 40% over 20 years.
