Stahl said it has expanded its activities in powder coatings by taking over OEM NuTech’s R&D facilities and developing products closer to the main European markets at its Spanish l´Hospitalet facility.
Stahl and OEM NuTech have been working together in a joint venture since July 2015.
“Increasing numbers of people want to surround themselves with pure, natural and sustainable products at home and at work,” said Uwe Siebgens, Stahl’s group director for Performance Coatings & Polymers. “By incorporating the R&D facilities of OEM NuTech into Stahl, we will benefit from the combination of our current innovation power and their know-how and facilities in terms of environmentally friendly powder coatings for interiors and architectural applications. We can now contribute even more substantially to meeting the increasing demand from the market by offering an innovative, sustainable and efficient solution without using VOCs.”
“Stahl has presented a unique opportunity to broaden our activities to the global market and expand on our work to date,” added Mike McCormick, managing director of OEM NuTech. “We offer turnkey solutions for specific applications, which is further enhanced by Stahl’s broad range of products and know-how to complement our market activities. Stahl’s global presence means we can reach new markets and implement changes for a better world.”
All of OEM NuTech’s R&D facilities – currently located in Perth, Australia – will be transferred to Stahl’s site at l’Hospitalet de Llobregat in Spain, where Stahl will open a new Center of Excellence for Powder Coatings. With the new facility, expected to open in the summer of 2018, Stahl has eight Centers of Excellence worldwide where its experts work side-by-side with partners to develop and test new applications for specific areas and industries.
