EAL Epoxy

Meeting Industry Demands with Quality & Precision

As demand for epoxy-coated rebar and smooth round bars continues to rise, limited supply sources and increasing costs make it challenging for our customers to stay competitive.

At EAL MFG, we understand these challenges, and we’re dedicated to offering solutions that drive customer success. That’s why we’ve expanded to a larger, state-of-the-art facility equipped with advanced technology, including a 12-bar coating line that meets industry demands with efficiency and precision.

The Benefits of Epoxy Coating

Epoxy coating offers unmatched value by protecting rebar from corrosion, extending the material’s lifespan, and providing the lowest life cycle cost. This makes it an ideal choice for bridges, parking structures, pavements, marine buildings, and structural repair work. Here’s a quick comparison of reinforcing options:

Uncoated Reinforcing Steel

The shortest lifespan and highest lifecycle cost. 

Reduced corrosion rates and cost-effective over both initial and life cycle costs, making it more economical than uncoated or stainless-steel options.

Higher initial costs (about 70% more than uncoated steel) with a life cycle cost about 35% greater than epoxy-coated steel.
