New Horizons in Powder Coatings

摘要

The global powder coatings market is healthy. Growth closely follows several key economic indicators such as industrial output, fixed investment, and consumer spending, according to Robert Watson, global markets and business development manager at allnex. "Growth is fueled by the customers' growing acceptance of powder coatings as a suitable alternative to liquid coatings," asserts Eddie Wang, regional commercial director for Powder Coatings North America, AkzoNobel. "This acceptance is mainly driven by fast technological advancements in powder coatings that offer superior properties matching those of liquid coatings, such as efficient application, hyper-durability, weatherability, corrosion resistance, a broad special color offer, and chipping and abrasion resistance," he explains.
