About AkzoNobel Industrial Wood Coatings
AkzoNobel Industrial Wood Coatings is a global supplier of industrial wood coating systems with over 200 years of experience in the industry and part of the AkzoNobel group, whose history dates back to 1646. The company develops and produces coatings, stains and color systems from primer through intermediate coats to topcoat, including hardener systems. The technology portfolio includes waterborne, solventborne and 100% UV-curing systems as well as wood adhesives for modern construction applications. Served segments are building products (windows, doors, cladding, decking), furniture, flooring, and kitchen and bathroom cabinets. The portfolio is complemented by technical services such as production line optimization, on-site color management, laboratory and analytical services, color design, and the global weathering program with testing sites in Canada, Turkey and Malaysia. At the Technical Application Center in Malmö, customers' production processes can be simulated and solutions tailored accordingly.
