Industrial Coatings


With sustainability as a key driver, there is a trend towards high solids and waterborne coatings in various sectors. There is also a need to fulfill resistance towards chemicals, abrasion and UV light to maintain durability.

Recent research in field of using bio-based materials in applications such as railway vehicles are also showing promising results to effectively adapt this technology into more areas. Nano-coatings too have proved to contribute to life of the coating so their use in various future development is expected.
