Cold-Rolled Steel – A Material Preferred by Many Contractors

What is Cold-Rolled Steel?

Cold-rolled steel is a type of steel that undergoes a zinc-aluminum coating process, followed by rolling and covering with an aluminum alloy layer. This alloy layer mainly consists of 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc, and 1.5% silicon. Thanks to the zinc coating, cold-rolled steel has excellent corrosion resistance and other outstanding advantages, making it four times more durable than conventional steel. Additionally, this product can withstand solar radiation, making it an ideal choice for roofing applications in homes, villas, warehouses, industrial zones, and other civil projects.

Cold-Rolled Steel Roofing Production Process

Cold-rolled steel is produced from steel coils through a cold rolling process after being descaled and oiled. First, the steel coils are sent into a cold-coating line, where the surface is cleaned once again before being placed into a NOF annealing furnace to improve the physical and mechanical properties of the steel sheet.

Next, the steel is coated with a zinc-aluminum layer using a hot-dip process with air-knife technology. Finally, the surface is covered with an anti-fingerprint layer, oil, or chromium to protect and prevent oxidation effectively.

Cold-Rolled Steel Production Standards

Currently, cold-rolled steel is manufactured using modern NOF technology, which is environmentally friendly. This ensures superior corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and a smooth, shiny surface, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of any construction project.

Additionally, cold-rolled steel products comply with various international standards, including:

  • ASTM A653/A653M (United States)
  • EN 10346 (Europe)
  • AS 1397 (Australia)
  • JIS 3312, JIS 3322 (Japan)
  • MS 2384, MS 2385 (Malaysia)

Features of Cold-Rolled Steel

Thanks to modern production technology, cold-rolled steel possesses several key advantages:

  • Superior durability against weather impacts or environmental conditions that could degrade steel quality, thanks to the zinc coating.
  • Heat resistance: It reduces heat absorption, especially in summer, keeping indoor temperatures lower. This makes it ideal for roofing and partitioning, ensuring a cool indoor space—perfect for Vietnam and tropical regions.
  • Multi-layer structure, allowing flexibility in various construction applications.
  • Corrosion and oxidation resistance, ensuring long-term durability.
  • Affordable price: The protective coating helps maintain its shine and color over time, ensuring consistent quality throughout its use.

Pros and Cons of Cold-Rolled Steel

Cold-rolled steel is one of the most popular roofing materials today, offering exceptional advantages, including:

  • High durability – four times more durable than regular galvanized steel.
  • Effective corrosion resistance.
  • Heat-resistant, reducing heat absorption and keeping structures cool.
  • Anti-fingerprint protection – prevents yellowing, oxidation, and scratches.
  • Available in various colors, providing diverse choices for customers.
  • Lightweight, making it easy to transport and install.
  • Versatile applications for different purposes.

However, the main drawback of cold-rolled steel is its price. It is generally more expensive than other steel types, but with a lifespan of 20–30 years, it remains a valuable investment for consumers.
