Architectural customers can now take advantage of a superdurable low-bake powder coating developed by AkzoNobel, which helps to protect building surfaces in more challenging environments.
Having launched a standard durability option in 2023, the newly introduced Interpon D2525 Low-E range has been specifically designed to withstand conditions in more extreme locations, such as those exposed to harsh weather. Backed by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), it can also improve longevity in standard environments.
Using industry-first technology introduced by the company in the standard durability option last year, the new range can be cured at temperatures as low as 150◦C – while still delivering the supreme levels of quality and performance demanded by customers in the buildings and construction sector.
“This latest innovation reflects our commitment to listening to customers and providing them with a range that combines several benefits – such as longer durability and lower cure – but without compromising on aesthetics,” said Bob Dirks, Global Segment Manager for Architecture at AkzoNobel’s Powder Coatings business. “It also supports the need for a collective responsibility towards a more sustainable future and highlights our commitment to sustainability throughout the value chain.”
Interpon D2525 Low-E can either be cured at a lower temperature (150◦C compared with a standard curing temperature between 180◦C and 200◦C) – cutting energy consumption by as much as 20% – or it can be cured up to 25% faster than conventional powders, allowing for more products to be coated in less time and improving the efficiency of the coating line. As well as supporting customers in reducing their carbon emissions, it will help AkzoNobel achieve its own ambition of reducing carbon emissions across the value chain by 50% by 2030.
It's ideally suited to any architectural or industrial metal surface, both exterior and interior, such as facades, windows, pergolas, fencing, railings, metal office equipment and doors. Key features include excellent levels of durability to protect color integrity and performance.
Interpon customers can also receive help with calculating the benefits of using its Low-E products, with regards to energy and carbon savings or productivity increases.
The company’s architectural powder coatings feature on some of the world’s most famous buildings, including The Shard and Westminster Abbey in London, UK; the Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing, China; and La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain.
