AkzoNobel shared the latest insights into new technologies, products and trends shaping the metal coatings industry at METALCON 2023. The formulation of CERAM-A-STAR® Select Frost is suitable for North American climates. Cool Chemistry® pigmentation technology used in CERAM-A-STAR® Select Frost helps reduce energy consumption by lowering cooling loads.

For AkzoNobel's customers, it offers reduced color complexity, top tier service and leading product quality. AkzoNobel products demonstrate comparative durability and performance amid changing climate patterns and the potential implications for coatings, such as coating performance in corrosive environments and coastal areas. To support the coil & extrusion portfolio, AkzoNobel has the Canopy App, which is a convenient 3D visualization tool that provides rapid and accurate color match information when paired with the CERAM-A-STAR® 1050, CERAM-A-STAR® 1050 Select, and other AkzoNobel product lines.

AkzoNobel's booth will feature two amazing builds by Kindig-it Design, one of which is a celebrity's vehicle built by Kindig-it Design and painted in Modern Classikk.
