Material Composition | Industrial flooring, structural support | Industry Standard: Plain carbon steel (ASTM A36) ▲ Our Base: Hot-dip galvanized steel (ASTM A153) ▲ Our Advanced: Stainless steel 304 (ASTM A240) | Base resists corrosion; Advanced offers superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments. | Industry standard may rust; Advanced is costlier. |
Corrosion Resistance | Marine environments, chemical plants | Industry: 200 hours salt spray (ASTM B117) ▲ Base: 500 hours ▲ Advanced: 1000+ hours (ASTM B117) (withstands extreme salt exposure) | Base suitable for moderate corrosion; Advanced withstands extreme marine/chemical exposure. | Industry standard fails quickly in harsh conditions. |
Load Capacity | Heavy machinery areas, vehicle traffic | Industry: 15 kN/m² ▲ Base: 25 kN/m² ▲ Advanced: 40 kN/m² (ISO 12281) (supports 8-ton trucks) | Base handles moderate loads; Advanced for heavy-duty applications. | Industry standard unsafe for heavy equipment. |
Fire Resistance | Fire-prone industrial zones | Industry: 30 minutes (ASTM E119) ▲ Base: 1 hour ▲ Advanced: 2 hours (ASTM E119) (meets Class 1 fire rating) | Base meets basic fire codes; Advanced exceeds safety standards. | Industry standard insufficient for high-risk areas. |
Surface Finish | Outdoor installations, aesthetic needs | Industry: Painted finish (ASTM D3925) ▲ Base: Hot-dip galvanized (ASTM A123) ▲ Advanced: Electro-polished stainless (ASTM A967) | Base resists paint chipping; Advanced maintains sleek appearance. | Painted finish may peel; galvanized requires touch-ups. |
Thickness | High-stress industrial floors | Industry: 3mm ▲ Base: 5mm ▲ Advanced: 10mm (ISO 3801) (enhanced structural rigidity) | Base for medium loads; Advanced prevents warping in heavy-use zones. | Thin industry standard bends easily under pressure. |
