The acquisition, which includes the entirety of Seattle Galvanizing’s equity, integrates two distinct sites into the AZZ Metal Coatings division. These locations serve as a strategic hub for operations covering Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Western Montana, and Alaska. Among the assets is a 45-foot kettle—the largest of its kind in the region—and a recently commissioned 38,000-square-foot facility dedicated to spin galvanizing for smaller metal components.
