PPGI is pre-painted galvanisediron, also known as pre-coated steel, coil coated steel, color coated steel etc., typically with a hot dip zinc coated steel substrate.
The term is an extension of GI which is a traditional abbreviation for Galvanized Iron. Today the term GI typically refers to essentially pure zinc (>99%) continuously hot dip coated steel, as opposed to batch dip processes. PPGI refers to factory pre-painted zinc coated steel, where the steel is painted before forming, as opposed to post painting which occurs after forming.
The hot dip metallic coating process is also used to manufacture steel sheet and coil with coatings of aluminium, or alloy coatings of zinc/aluminium, zinc/iron and zinc/aluminium/magnesium which may also be factory pre-painted. While GI may sometimes be used as a collective term for various hot dip metallic coated steels, it more precisely refers only to zinc coated steel. Similarly, PPGI may sometimes be used as a general term for a range of metallic coated steels that have been pre-painted, but more often refers more precisely to pre-painted zinc coated steel.
Zinc coated steel substrate for PPGI is typically produced on a continuous galvanizing line (CGL). The CGL may include a painting section after the hot dip galvanising section, or more commonly the metallic coated substrate in coil form is processed on a separate continuous paint line (CPL). Metallic coated steel is cleaned, pre-treated, applied with various layers of organic coatings which can be paints, vinyl dispersions, or laminates. The continuous process used to apply these coatings is often referred to as Coil Coating.
The steel thus produced in this process is a prepainted, prefinished and ready for further processing into finished products or components. to use material.
The coil coating process may be used for other substrates such as aluminium, or aluminium, stainless steel or alloy coated steel other than "pure" zinc coated steel. However, only "pure" zinc coated steel is typically referred to as PPGI. For example, PPGL may be used for pre-painted 55%Al/Zn alloy-coated steel (pre-painted GALVALUME(r) steel*)
Over 30 million tons of such coated steel is produced today in over 300 coating lines just in Boxing which is a little county in North of China.
China, South Korea and Taiwan are the top 3 producers of PPGI steel according to PPGI marketplace platform http://www.buyppgi.com

I've merged Cultus Lake and Cultus Lake Provincial Park into this article since they are all related, and the two now-merged articles were really only stubs. It's my intention to further expand this article, to include more details about the whole community-park-quest for village matter. --Ckatz 18:43, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
"The Cultus Lake Park Board, the City of Chilliwack and the Fraser Valley Regional District are working together to look at options for a new system of governance at Cultus Lake Park. The current system of governance creates serious obstacles to the financing of new infrastructure such as roads, sewers and waterworks. Cultus Lake Park is managed under a unique provincial statute, the Cultus Lake Park Act (1932). The act gives the City conditional tenure over the 640-acre park, but prohibits the City from selling property. Residents, either seasonal or year-round, lease their properties for a 21-year term. Businesses lease their properties for a five-year term."
The community and the lake need to be sepraate articles; the lake article would be Cultus Lake (British Columbia), cf. Cultus Lake (oregon). There are a couple of other Cultus Lakes in BC, but none that would every likely have articles.
Reads a bit like a tourism promo, watch that —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.71.194.107 (talk) 05:40, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
Took me precisely 10 years to react, but I agree that the article should be split into the separate articles for the lake and the park. It seems pretty unusual to merge two articles which relate to distinct things/places.Deccantrap (talk) 17:05, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
The front-page Oct. 3 Vancouver Sun newspaper article Feud developing over prime reserve land in Cultus Lake : How a non-native came to own 29 acres of the reserve may have some information to be added to the wikipedia article. Canuckle (talk) 19:06, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
