AkzoNobel has launched the Interpon D2525 Trends Collection, designed to offer designers and architects a striking selection of colors and finishes that complement the unique architectural style and natural beauty of the Middle East.
Building on the success of the Interpon D Futura powder coatings collection, a favorite of the architectural industry for more than 20 years, the Trends Collection includes three curated color palettes: Desert Sands; Shimmering Mirage; and Arabian Nights. Inspired by the rich tones of the desert and the avant-garde architectural styles of the Middle East, the Trends collection blends effortlessly with both modern and traditional regional designs to bring fresh, lasting appeal to a building’s facade, windows and doors.
Desert Sands features a warm blend of reds, soft greys, earthy tones, and natural stone capturing the essence of the desert while honoring traditional craftsmanship. Shimmering Mirage is a serene mix of gentle greys and whites with a metallic sheen, adding a touch of magic and sophistication to any design. Arabian Nights evokes the rich colors of the desert at dusk, with earthy browns, deep coffee shades, and dusky blues that connect buildings to their natural surroundings.
AkzoNobel’s Trends Collection is backed by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), meaning the collection’s raw materials, manufacturing processes, and transportation have been thoroughly assessed for their sustainability. This provides important assurances to architects and designers that their choice of powder coating is environmentally responsible and contributes to a building’s environmental rating.
The Superdurable Interpon D2525 collection also boasts exceptional durability, as well as offering superior gloss retention, color stability, and UV resistance. With a 25-year warranty and certifications such as Qualicoat Class 2 and GSB Master, the Trends Collection is built to withstand the test of time, making it ideal for demanding climates.
Sanal Limoncuoğlu, Commercial Director Powder Coatings South & East Europe, Middle East and Africa at AkzoNobel Powder Coatings, says the collection is more than just a color palette – it’s an invitation to create: “At AkzoNobel, we believe that great design starts with the right finish. With the Trends Collection, we’ve created a range of colors and finishes that not only reflect the splendor of the Middle East but also offer architects and designers the freedom to bring their most innovative ideas to life. We are excited to continue supporting the architectural community with products that combine beauty, durability, and sustainability.”
The Trends Collection is available on stock (Ready-to-Ship) to ensure that even the most time-sensitive projects stay on schedule.
