Resins and additives, a leading offering for more sustainable coatings
Interior decoration, boats, construction, automotive, touchscreens, packaging, industrial timber, metal infrastructure and more: the coating sector covers a huge range of applications and meets demanding and varied aesthetic, functional and regulatory specifications.
Arkema is one of the world’s leading players: its vast portfolio of materials - resins and additives - provides manufacturers of paints, varnishes and lacquers with solutions that meet market expectations, increasingly driven by energy and climate challenges. “Our role is to support the transformation of the coating sector by focusing on four major aspects: phase out of hazardous substances, the quest for bio‑sourced raw materials, development of more efficient and sustainable technologies and the evolution of application processes toward greater industrial and energy efficiency”, explains Hélène Pernot, Sustainable Offer Manager Coating Solutions at Arkema.
