®Production and workmanship of <strong>artos</strong> poles<strong>artos</strong> poles are manufactured at the facility of our producer, Meiser Vogtland OHG, in Oelsnitz,Germany. We can provide our steel poles to you both individually galvanized as well aspre-galvanized.Galvanization of parts:After being manufactured, the poles are degreased and subsequently cleaned in an acid bathso that they exhibit a pure metal surface. After rinsing anew in a water bath, the poles aredipped into a fluxing agent and dried once more.Ultimately, each and every single pole is dipped into a hot zinc bath of approximately 450 degreeCelsius (according to DIN EN ISO 1461). In the process, the entire surface of a pole includingall raw edges are galvanized. The zinc coating is from 50 μ to 80 μ <strong>for</strong> an individuallygalvanized pole.Having been galvanized this way, the surface of the <strong>artos</strong> poles will defy wind and rain alike<strong>for</strong> many, many years to come, and they are guaranteed a long lifespan.Pre-galvanized:The continuously galvanized poles are vineyard poles that are manufactured from materialthat has already been galvanized. Pre-galvanized poles have raw edges that are not galvanized.The zinc coating usually averages 20 μ. These factors result in the poles being morecorrodible. Nevertheless, these poles last <strong>for</strong> one vine generation as well.16
