Galvanisation Can Save Up To 5% Of India’s GDP Annually: HZL

New Delhi: Vedanta group firm Hindustan Zinc on Thursday stressed the adoption of galvanisation, highlighting its role in addressing the critical issue of corrosion, which costs India nearly five per cent of its annual GDP.

Hindustan Zinc Ltd (HZL), a subsidiary of the Vedanta Group, is a leading zinc-lead producer in the country and a key supplier of zinc used in galvanisation processes, especially for steel structures.

Ahead of World Corrosion Awareness Day, the company launched a series of initiatives under its campaign ‘ZungKeKhilaafZinc’ to raise public awareness about corrosion and its widespread impact.
