Galvanized Steel Coils Manufacturer & Supplier in UAE, Saudi Arabia and the GCC

Tianjin Sino East Steel Group is a leading galvanized steel coils manufacturer and supplier for the Middle East market. Our hot-dip galvanized steel coils, manufactured in a 65,000 m² factory in Tianjin, China, are exported to more than 50 countries with an annual production capacity of 500,000 metric tons. If you are looking for a reliable galvanized coil supplier in Dubai, Riyadh, Doha or Kuwait, Sino East Steel delivers ASTM A653 certified coils with full Mill Test Certificates on every shipment.

What Are Galvanized Steel Coils?

Galvanized steel coils are cold-rolled or hot-rolled steel coils coated with a protective layer of zinc through the continuous hot-dip galvanizing process. The zinc coating provides sacrificial corrosion protection, which makes galvanized coils the most cost-effective solution for applications where steel is exposed to moisture, humidity and coastal environments. In the GCC region, where high humidity and saline air accelerate corrosion, hot-dip galvanized coils are the standard choice for roofing, cladding, ducting and light structural fabrication.

The zinc coating weight is expressed in grams per square metre (g/m²), with common specifications of Z30, Z60, Z80, Z120, Z180, Z220 and Z275. For coastal applications such as Jebel Ali and Dammam, higher coating weights such as Z180 to Z275 are recommended. Sino East Steel supplies galvanized steel coils with coating weights from 30 to 275 g/m², in thicknesses from 0.12 mm to 2.0 mm and widths from 600 mm to 1250 mm.

The hot-dip galvanizing line produces coils with a uniform spangle finish - regular spangle, minimized spangle or zero spangle - depending on your requirement. All coils can be supplied in the following surface conditions: chromate passivated, oiled, chromated and oiled, or unpassivated. This flexibility is important for paint adhesion, welding and further roll-forming processes used by roofing manufacturers across the Gulf.

Why Buy Galvanized Coils from Sino East Steel?

Sino East Steel is not a trading company; we are a direct factory. This means you receive factory pricing, consistent quality and reliable delivery. With more than 18 years of steel export experience and 500,000 metric tons of annual capacity, we supply galvanized coils to national distributors, roofing manufacturers and EPC contractors throughout the Middle East. Every coil is tested in-house and shipped with an EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificate (MTC), and our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001.

We understand the specific requirements of the GCC market: metric sizes, strict coating specifications, humidity-resistant packaging and clear documentation for customs clearance. Our export team prepares complete shipping documents including packing lists, certificates of origin and inspection reports. For large projects, we can coordinate third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or TUV before shipment.

Because we are the manufacturer, we can also offer technical support - our engineers help you select the correct grade, coating weight and finish for your climate conditions, saving you from costly corrosion failures in the field.

Shipping and Delivery to Middle East Ports

We ship galvanized steel coils in seaworthy export packing - plastic film wrapped, with edge protectors and steel or wooden pallets as required. Regular sailings cover all major Gulf ports: Jebel Ali (UAE), Khalifa Port (UAE), Dammam and Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), Hamad Port (Qatar), Shuwaikh (Kuwait) and Sohar (Oman). Typical production lead time is 15 to 25 days after deposit, and we can arrange sea freight, air freight or door-to-door delivery through our logistics partners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between G30, G60 and G90 galvanized steel coils?

The "G" number refers to the zinc coating weight in ounces per square foot. G30 has approximately 90 g/m² of zinc, G60 approximately 180 g/m² and G90 approximately 275 g/m². For GCC coastal environments we recommend G60 or G90 for exterior applications.

Can you supply galvanized coils in custom widths and thicknesses?

Yes. We can slit coils to widths from 100 mm and cut to length sheets, with thicknesses from 0.12 mm to 2.0 mm, depending on the grade and coating specification.

Do you provide Mill Test Certificates with galvanized coil shipments?

Yes. Every shipment includes an EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificate with chemical composition and mechanical properties, plus test results for zinc coating weight.

What is the minimum order quantity for galvanized steel coils?

For standard ASTM A653 grades we can supply from 20 metric tons per size. Mixed-size container orders (20 ft or 40 ft) can be arranged for approved distributors.

How long does delivery to Jebel Ali or Dammam take?

Production takes 15 to 25 days, and sea freight from Tianjin to Jebel Ali or Dammam typically takes 18 to 25 days, giving a total of 5 to 7 weeks from order confirmation.

What packaging is used for GCC shipments?

Coils are wrapped in VCI-treated plastic film, protected with edge protectors and fixed on pallets or skids. This packaging withstands the humidity of sea transport and the desert heat during inland delivery.
