It earns revenue through two segments: AZZ Metal Coatings, which performs hot-dip galvanizing services, and AZZ Precoat Metals, which applies coil coatings to steel and aluminum coils before fabrication. For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, total sales were $1.65 billion, with Metal Coatings contributing $758.7 million and Precoat Metals contributing $891.4 million.

The company is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, and its CEO is Tom Ferguson.
