AkzoNobel Performance Coatings has launched a bright metallic powder coating that it says provides a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to chrome plating.
Interpon Cr, part of AkzoNobel’s Interpon powder coatings range, combines a chrome-like finish with the performance of a two-coat powder coating for applications such as furniture, lighting and other interior fixtures.
The combination of a highly reflective base coat layer with a clear top coat also offers resistance to finger marking, the company says.
Interpon Cr is the latest example of AkzoNobel’s Planet Possible approach, which focuses on creating more value from fewer resources, says John Wolff, managing director of AkzoNobel’s Powder Coatings business.
