ZG 13

ZG 13 is a two-component epoxy primer designed to protect steel structures in environments with high corrosion loads. Thanks to its high resistance to moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress, it provides a reliable foundation for long-lasting coating systems. 

It is suitable for industrial structures, bridges, hydraulic structures, process equipment, power plants, and other applications where standard primers are no longer sufficient. 

What does ZG 13 offer you?

✔ High corrosion protection for demanding environments

✔ Resistance to moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress

✔ Excellent adhesion to steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, and mineral substrates

✔ Certified service life for C4 corrosive environments

✔ Fast drying and the ability to recoat quickly

✔ Suitable primer for epoxy, polyurethane, and alkyd systems 

Who is it ideal for?

For manufacturers of steel structures, bridge components, industrial equipment, power generation facilities, and agricultural structures, as well as designers who require long-term corrosion protection for their structures.

When to choose ZG 13?

If the structure will be exposed to moisture, chemical stress, industrial environments, or long-term corrosive influences, and you require significantly higher protection than that provided by standard primers. 

Where is it used?

• Steel structures in industrial buildings
• Bridge structures
• Hydraulic structures
• Power plants
• Agricultural facilities
• Processing facilities
• Food industry
• Industrial facilities with high corrosion exposure 

Recommendations

If the goal is to maximize the service life of the coating system, a high-quality primer is crucial. ZG 13 creates a solid anti-corrosion barrier onto which PE, ZE, or KE topcoats can subsequently be applied. This makes it suitable for both standard industrial applications and certified fire-resistant systems.
