Previously such structures have been built using welded tubular products.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\tAccording to Tony Harris, Vice President Sales, Western Europe &amp; Africa, &#8220;We are one of the few suppliers able to deliver high-strength formable steel with thick Galfan coating, which is the preferred coating for this kind of application.
