Backed by industry-leading innovation and hands-on training, the Cromax family of refinish products provides innovative and productive systems, standard setting color tools, and localized business solutions aimed at enabling collision repair professionals to optimize performance. The next generation technology was developed at Axalta’s Global Innovation Center in Philadelphia, thanks to the collaboration of scientists from the United States, Mexico, and Europe.
