    Axalta Products Share the World Stage at the Olympic Games in Rio

    Axalta Products Share the World Stage at the Olympic Games in Rio
    Axalta Alesta AP
    09.21.16
    The flames have been extinguished on the Olympic and Paralympic torches but the coating on them still remains vibrant. Axalta Coating Systems manufactures the Alesta AP Polyester Architectural coating that was applied to this year’s Olympic and Paralympic torches by Pinturas Boronat S.L., a family-owned company founded in 1982 in Barcelona, Spain, which is renowned for its focus on quality, service and innovation. The company hosts four production lines, split between powder and liquid applications, covering 4200 square metres of production space.

    The torches are visually stunning. The iconic structures are made with recycled aluminium that was coated using Alesta AE30109207221 white pearl powder. This coating selection from the Alesta “Star Collection” provided the performance and film properties needed to protect the 69 centimetre high torches against environmental elements such as humidity, abrasion, weathering and, most importantly, the famous Olympic flame. This year’s flame was designed to be able to withstand gusts of wind up to 120 km/h. When lit, the torches extended an additional 70 centimetres and displayed the colours of the Brazilian flag. Wavy lines were incorporated into the torch design to represent the earth, the sea and the mountains. In addition to coating the torches, Axalta’s Alesta EP Silver Delight II powder coating was used to coat 19,620 units of metal beds for the Rio Olympics Village.
