AkzoNobel Powder Coatings helps build reputations with Interpon’s Superdurable architectural coatings

AkzoNobel Powder Coatings is taking the performance of Interpon’s superdurable D2525 range to the next level with its X-Pro technology, to give high-quality architectural features even greater resistance to scratching and marring.

X-Pro technology, which is already available in Interpon’s D1036 range, now features the satin and matt finishes of the superdurable Interpon D2525. This X-Pro line already includes 150 finishes that are Ready-To-Ship (RTS).

AkzoNobel ‘ongoing innovation strategy’

Daniela Vlad, Business Director of AkzoNobel Powder Coatings, knows reputations are built on stand-out designs and architects in every corner of the globe depend on Interpon.

“Architects trust in our innovation, and in our ability as a global leader to protect their creations with highly durable coatings that have a quality, reliability and performance that is second to none,” she says.

“Extending the X-Pro family into Interpon’s superdurable range demonstrates our ongoing innovation strategy and our commitment to keep giving our customers access to even more durable coatings in the widest span of colours and finishes to satisfy any imagination.”

The new extended range is available in a collection of colours, including those darker colours where physical imperfections are more obvious.

It gives architectural specifiers even more avenues of enhancing the beauty and longevity of their buildings, without the concern of any part of their design, such as a window or door, encountering damage in transit or during handling and installation.

‘Superior finish’

Bob Dirks, Global Segment Manager Architectural, AkzoNobel Powder Coatings, expects this X-Pro extension to receive a positive reception.

“Our powder coatings help architects create the buildings they imagine without having to compromise on finish,” he says.

He adds that with a superdurable powder, architectural assets have protection during handling, transport and assembly and retain their superior finish for the years to come.

The enhanced gloss retention and scratch resistance of Interpon D X-Pro have undergone verification using the industry-standard Martindale Test, which simulates various kinds of marring to measure superficial surface imperfections.

The new D2525 X-Pro is available for customers in EMEA and will have its launch in South Asia later this year.

Dark colours are in stock and Ready-To-Ship, and other colours are available on demand.
