AkzoNobel’s Powder Coatings business introduced today an Android app that along with their popular iOS app allows customers to buy powder coatings directly from most mobile devices including phones, tablets, and computers.
Efficiency and productivity are the main drivers behind the move to digital ordering. By providing customers with 24/7 access to product data, AkzoNobel wants customers to be expert shoppers with extensive product information at their fingertips. AkzoNobel is at the forefront of digital innovation, increasing the customer efficiency by making vast amounts of information accessible through simple, yet powerful apps. The Powder Coatings purchasing app, found in the iOS and Android app stores under the name Interpon, is the latest addition to the company’s fast growing offering of mobile apps.
“AkzoNobel Powder Coatings is focused on digital advancements to provide customers with easy, convenient methods to complete procurement tasks and obtain product data,” says Steve Kiefer, North America Business Director for AkzoNobel’s Powder Coatings business. “Apps in both Apple and Android operating systems are the most powerful and widely available tools to access product information and make purchases with all the mobility of a cell phone.”
The apps give AkzoNobel customers the ability to search the comprehensive catalog of Ready to Ship (RTS) and RAL AkzoNobel products, allowing them to sort by color, chemistry, specification, or performance criteria. The intuitive nature of the apps gives customers the ability to identify products specific to their needs. Product data sheets, stock locations, and pricing are available for each of the 400+ products included in the AkzoNobel Powder Coatings catalog.

I’m able to easily find the product I need, confirm the specifications and email the product data sheet--all from the convenience of my cell phone. The app improved my efficiency and expertise all at once."
