In August 2013, UNICOIL launched a Quality Fundamentals Industrial Awareness Campaign that explains the importance of constituent components of pre-painted galvanized steel product to various agencies including Customers, Traders, and End users, Industrialists, Consultants and Public in general. UNICOIL tested dozens of samples of commercial and imported products available in the market, in its own laboratory and also had them tested in several independent laboratories in the kingdom. In line with its commitment to social responsibility, UNICOIL decided to share the test findings with the different agencies by utilizing the most appropriate media approaches and tools.
The multilingual social media and educational campaigns (in Arabic, English, Urdu,and Tagalog) are addressed to the following groups:
- Steel traders and steel service centers
- Industrialists
- Steel fabricators
