3.1. Primary Material:
The Primary Material Used in the Production of Logi UK Products Is Mild Steel.
Mild Steel Is a Low-Carbon Steel Containing Approximately 0.05–0.25% Carbon. Due To Its Low Carbon Content, It Has High Ductility, Making It Easy to Process (Cutting, Stamping, Welding, Etc.). It Is One of The Most Popular Types of Steel Used in Construction, Manufacturing, And Decorative Products.
Protection Requires Painting, Galvanizing, Or Other Coatings.
Applications Of Mild Steel:
• Manufacturing Fences, Gates, And Panels;
• Production Of Decorative Elements, Such as Garden Ornaments;
• Use In Construction (E.G., Beams, Profiles)
• Creation Of Household Items and Interior Design Elements.
For Our Products, Particularly Garden Ornaments, Mild Steel Is an Ideal Material Due to Its Strength, Ease of Processing, and Ability to Accept Decorative Finishes.
The Steel We Use Complies with The Following National British Standards (BS):
• BS 970-1: Steel grades EN1A (for machining) and EN3B (for more universal use).
• BS EN 1013: Cold-rolled low-carbon steel.
3.2. Coatings:
We Use High-Quality Polyester-Based Powder Coatings for Outdoor Products to Ensure Superior Weather Resistance and Lasting Colour.
Key Benefits of Powder Coating:
o Durability: Highly resistant to scratches, chipping, and fading.
o Environmental Safety: Contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making it an eco-friendly option.
o Weather Resistance: Protects against rust, UV rays, and moisture, ensuring longevity in outdoor applications.
