The new Interpon W powder coatings developed by AkzoNobel allow to provide consistent finish and protection to the most challenging substrates.

The coating producer AkzoNobel has recently launched Interpon W, a new range of powder coatings solutions that are particularly suitable for designers and manufactures dealing with heat sensitive substrates (HSS) such as wood and plastic. Interpon W powder coatings include the Interpon W Core, Flex Pro, Fast and Fast Pro products.

Besides physical attraction and sustainability, the new series allows to provide a consistent finish and chemical, scratch, liquid and heat resistance even to the most challenging shapes and substrates, ranging from furniture, kitchen and bathroom products to building and construction materials.

In addition, Interpon W Core and Interpon Flex Pro enables a lower thermal curing process that offers even higher weatherability and gloss retention for several applications, while Interpon W Fast and Interpon W Fast Pro combine low temperature curing range (between 80°C-120°C) with short curing time (2-5 minutes).

The new products allow materials such as MDF/HDF, Plywood, OSB, Natural Wood, Gypsum Board/Plasterboard, Fibre cement and plastic composites to benefit from a powder coating that is free from Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and have a high utilisation of material - up to 99% - with any overspray able to be recycled.

“Through innovation and worldwide market development, we are creating solutions that are transforming the potential of low cure powder coatings, and taking sustainable solutions and business performance to new heights,” stated Daniela Vlad, the Managing Director of the Powder Coatings business line at AkzoNobel. “The ‘Safe and Easy’ process has been introduced to ease the transition to new technologies: we know that switching to new technologies may come with uncertainty, which is why our dedicated teams will support you in making a Safe and Easy choice for your business. In close cooperation with global network of powder coating line manufacturers, we will help you from start to finish in creating and implementing a fully-operational coating line. This includes understanding the products and processes required, and the financial benefits you can expect. It also includes supporting you with staff training and ensuring a smooth integration between the powder and coating line.”

The Interpon W powder coatings were developed at the AkzoNobel’s Global Competence Center for powder on heat sensitive substrates in Como (Italy). The Interpon W range performance has also already been proven through partnerships with several Interpon customers in the company’s regional hubs and in close co-operation with other line manufacturers.
