In this new role, he will be responsible for the growth of AkzoNobel’s decorative paints business in India. This is further to his recent appointment as an Wholetime Director in the Board of Directors of Akzo Nobel India Ltd.
We remind, AkzoNobel’s Coil and Extrusion Coatings business has signed a strategic agreement with the hi-tech specialists to develop a pioneering process that uses electron beams to cure coatings on metal substrates, said the company. E-beam technology is a fast-growing scientific field and could offer significant advantages over conventional thermal curing methods, such as lower energy consumption, increased productivity with higher quality and reduced environmental impact. The process itself cures coatings by using a directed stream of electrons to deliver the energy required to form the final film.
