What Will Influence Colour Steel Sheet Price?

Let’s review the factors which influence the colour coating sheet price.

Base Metal

The colour steel sheet price varies with different substrates, such as cold rolled steel, galvanized steel (GI), galvalume steel (GL). And among these substrates, cold rolled steel is the cheapest. Considering the corrosion resistance, PPGL is the best choice. While in terms of the quality to price ratio, the color GI steel (PPGI) is most commonly used and cost-effective.

Thickness of Base Metal

Generally, the thinner the coil thickness, the higher the price. For example, the price of 0.12-0.16 mm is relatively high, the price change of 0.3-0.45 mm is small, and the price of 0.45-0.7 mm is basically the same. It is because of different manufacturing techniques. Wanzhi Steel offers colour coated steel with a thickness of 0.12 to 1.2 mm to select from. Welcome to contact us for the latest price list.

Paint and Paint Thickness

The coating layers can effectively keep the base metal from corrosion and rusting. Generally, the thicker the coating layer, the higher the price. Most color coated steel is painted twice and double-sided. And the thickness of the top paint is 11-30 μm and the back paint is 5-11 μm. You need to choose according to the use purpose and environment. On the other hand, the paint materials and brands will also greatly influence the price of color coated rolls. The commonly used paints include PE, SMP, SMP, and PVDF. Below is a table for you to review their price and performance. Commonly, we use PE as primer paint because of its great adhesion and affordable price. While if you are looking for excellent resistance to corrosion, UV, and smooth appearance, etc, PVDF will be a better choice.

Items	Cost	Durability	Colours	Film Integrity	UV Resistance	Chalking Resistance	Dirt Resistance
PE	Low	Good	Rich	Excellent	Medium	Good	Poor
SMP	Medium	Good	Rich	Good	Medium	Good	Medium
HDP	Medium	Very Good	Rich	Good	Very Good	Very Good	Good
PVDF	High	Excellent	Limited	Good	Excellent	Excellent	Good

Packaging

There are different packaging methods for colored corrugated sheets, including simple packaging, standard export packaging, and special packaging. Simple packaging uses waterproof kraft paper to wrap steel coils or sheets up. It is cheap but it is just suitable for short-distance transportation. While standard export packaging is widely used for long-distance transportation. It employs waterproof kraft paper and galvanized sheets as the outer protective layer. Besides, the coils will be tied up with steel belts. If you have special packaging requirements, for example fixing coils with wooden or metal pallets, you may pay more for the packaging.

Processing Method

Different processing methods and sheet types will also affect the price. For example, some color steel sheets need to be sheared or punched, or profiled for different uses. After further processing, the colour coated plain sheets price will be higher than that of coils. Below is a profiling video for your reference. You can check more videos from Wanzhi Youtube.
