Why did they reach out to the galvanizer? As stated in the last sentence of the intro: “Evolve is innovating for the future with their transport lines. Meeting with the galvanizer started at Evolve in Painesville, Ohio with their Operations Manager and VP of Operations to discuss their need to increase the overall durability of their transporters. Galvanizing the trailer was the obvious choice moving forward; based on the original length of the trailer the Operations Manager for the galvanizer suggested manufacturing the new design into three sections. Proper draining and ventilation were discussed and approved to hot dip galvanize the trailer frame safely and efficiently. By breaking this unit into three sections it allowed for the sections then to be a single dip scenario, which was more cost effective. The next step involved Evolves Operation Manager to visit the galvanizer to see the trailer parts hot dipped, once dipped and inspected it was given the thumbs up moving forward. A final meeting back at Evolve and then everything moved forward galvanizing their first trailer, since the first one another 4 transporters have been delivered and galvanized. Evolve is now following their history of being innovative by hot dip galvanizing their transporters which provides coating durability, corrosion performance and sustainability for many years to come.

Polar Hill Services for the National Science Foundation

Relocatable building system deployed at a National Science Foundation research facility on the Greenland ice sheet at 10600 feet elevation.

APA Hawaii Solar

The Ewa Beach Solar project in Kupono, Hawaii utilized 280 tons of hot-dip galvanized ground screws to support 120,000 solar panels, creating Oahu's largest renewable energy facility with four-hour battery storage capacity. Hot-dip galvanizing was selected for superior corrosion protection in the ocean-proximity environment, ensuring long-term durability for this major grid infrastructure project.

JPMorgan Chase 270 Park Ave

JPMorgan Chase's 60-story, 2.5 million square foot headquarters at 270 Park Avenue utilized 1,500 tons of hot-dip galvanized steel for upper floors to combat corrosive conditions from heat and moisture generated by electrical equipment. This $3 billion supertall structure is the tallest building in New York completely powered by hydroelectric energy.
