Assembly 2026 is open to anyone whose company is a member of an EGGA national galvanizers association or is an EGGA Associate Member. This year we’re also welcoming galvanizing companies from the Middle East and North Africa! In conjunction with our local partner, GALDER, delegates from these regions can register for Assembly 2026.
This international glossary of galvanizing terms has been developed with the valuable assistance of EGGA members. It includes technical, scientific, and commercial terms used in the batch (after-fabrication) hot dip galvanizing industry.
