Had-Fab recently won a ‘GAGA’ award from the Galvanizers Association for the Exposure project which was completed in conjunction with Anthony Gormley.

The Galvanizers Association represents the hot dip galvanizing industry of the UK and the Galvanizers Association Galvanizing Awards (GAGAs) aim to give recognition to those who are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in terms of hot-dip galvanizing in this country. The awards span five categories, for areas spanning from architecture to sustainability.

Had-Fab won the ‘Galvanizing in Engineering’ category for Exposure. Galvanizing this 60-tonne, 26m high ‘crouching man’ figure was certainly no mean feat, providing the company with many logistical and physical challenges along the way, but none of which were outwith the capabilities of those working on the project.
