As development of global marine industry and request for shipping efficiency, high speed passenger ship has been used more and more aluminium alloy as body structural material. Since the density of aluminium alloy is only one third of steel, and its excellent corrosion resistance, it has become the best solution to reduce weight of ship.
Merger provides extra-large specification marine plates with excellent corrosion resistance, max width 4300mm. They are widely used in deck, super structure and underlying structure where need high weld strength.
