Introducing New G100 Premium Steel Option

Verona, WI –Cleary Building Corp., an industry leader in post-frame construction, partnered with Fabral to introduce a new G100 premium steel. G100 galvanized steel features a thicker zinc coating that provides enhanced protection against rust and corrosion. This results in a stronger, longer-lasting panel system built to withstand the demanding environments commonly experienced by pole buildings.

Cleary Building Corp. is committed to offering building materials that provide lasting value and dependable performance for our clients. The development of G100 premium steel strengthens that commitment by providing greater corrosion protection and helping extend the service life of our buildings.

The main features of this new G100 premium steel option:

  • Bare Steel: Fabral uses only 29 gauge, 100,000 PSI nominal tensile strength base structural steel with a minimum .015 thickness before paint to assure you of the thickest, strongest panel in the industry.  UP TO 2.5X STRONGER THAN SOME COMPETITORS 26 GAUGE, COMMERCIAL STEEL AT 40,000 PSI.
  • Galvanization (2 layers): Grandrib 3 plus G100 has up to 1.1 oz of zinc protection as compared to competitors G60 products, resulting in up to 83% more corrosion protection.
  •  G100 contains more zinc (1.1 oz total per square foot) compared to G60 (0.6 oz), which directly correlates to longer, more robust rust resistance in aggressive environments.
  • Zinc Pre-Treatment (2 layers): Prepares the surface for paint while adding additional corrosion resistance.  Many other panels skip this step.
  • Longer Service Life: The thicker zinc layer allows the panel to withstand exposure for a longer duration, reducing maintenance and increasing the lifespan of the steel.
  • Increased Sacrificial Protection: Because zinc acts as a sacrificial anode, a thicker coating (G100) provides more material to protect exposed cut edges and scratches, delaying the onset of red rust better than thinner coatings.
