ISO 14713:2017 specifies guidance and principles for the protection of iron and steel against corrosion through hot-dip galvanizing. This international standard plays a vital role in enhancing the durability and life cycle of steel products across various industries. Issued by the International Organization for Standardization, ISO 14713 serves as a fundamental reference for manufacturers, fabricators, engineers, and project managers involved in steel design and production, where corrosion resistance is critical.
Quality Asia Certification offers globally recognized ISO 14713:2017 certification services to help organizations ensure compliance with best practices for metallic coatings and corrosion protection.

ISO 14713:2017 – "Zinc coatings – Guidelines and recommendations for the protection against corrosion of iron and steel in structures – Part 1: General principles of design and corrosion resistance", provides a set of recommendations for the selection and design of hot-dip galvanized coatings. The standard includes three parts:
ISO 14713:2017 is not a testing standard, but rather a guidance document supporting ISO 1461 and ISO 2063 for steel structures exposed to atmospheric and other environments.
Corrosion in steel structures leads to massive financial and structural losses every year. ISO 14713:2017 addresses this issue with structured guidance that ensures:
Organizations involved in civil construction, metal fabrication, transportation, power, oil & gas, or infrastructure projects can greatly benefit from implementing ISO 14713:2017.
ISO 14713:2017 certification helps your business by:
✅ Extending asset life: Significantly reduces corrosion-related deterioration, increasing the operational life of steel structures.
✅ Reducing maintenance cost: Minimizes recurring costs related to repainting, recoating, or replacing corroded parts.
✅ Improving product performance: Ensures high structural integrity and consistent quality in all weather and environmental conditions.
✅ Enhancing customer confidence: Demonstrates a commitment to global best practices and quality assurance in design and fabrication.
✅ Facilitating global trade: Strengthens compliance in international markets where ISO-based specifications are preferred or mandated.
✅ Supporting sustainability: Reduces environmental impact by lowering waste generated through metal deterioration and repairs.
