Meet Brandon Welsh – our Technical Service Manager 👋

Brandon has been a part of the AkzoNobel team for 14 years and works closely with customers to deliver effective solutions and keep projects moving.

With previous experience at a coil coater, joining AkzoNobel allowed Brandon to grow and develop his skillset. Starting in quality control, then moving through auditing and technical service, his career has been built on understanding products inside out and helping customers when it matters most.

For Brandon, it’s all about listening and learning. Whether it’s tackling a complex issue or navigating evolving situations, every day brings something new.

Right now, he’s excited about strengthening his team’s knowledge base:
“At the moment, I’m focused on expanding our team’s knowledge - not just of our own products, but also areas like pretreatment, so we can better identify and address the root causes of potential issues.”

A great example of how problem-solving, experience, and teamwork come together in technical service.

Thank you, Brandon, for the dedication and experience you bring to our team!

It was great to be part of Zak World of Façades in Rotterdam last week.

It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with industry peers and share insights on how high-performance coil coatings and innovative façade technologies can come together to drive more sustainable building performance.

Together with Emergo, we showcased how advanced coating solutions can be integrated with cutting-edge façade systems, including real-world applications of FIDURA™ coil coating systems within solar heat absorbing façade technology.

Events like this highlight the momentum across our industry toward future-ready design, materials innovation, and improved building performance - and we’re excited to be part of that journey.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by. If you want to find out how FIDURA systems can support your architectural needs, connect with our team today: https://coilcoatings.akzonobel.com/emea/contact-us

We’re getting ready to attend this year’s FRSA Convention and Expo, and it’s shaping up to be a great opportunity to connect with the roofing and metal building community.

With Florida’s demanding climate in mind, we’ll be focusing on topics that really matter on the ground - from test fence performance to no coastal setback, and the added value of a limited transferable warranty that supports long term confidence in coated metal systems.

It’s all part of how we’re helping customers navigate real world conditions, such as heat, UV, and coastal exposure, where durability and performance are critical.

If you’re planning to attend, come and connect with the team at Booth #234. We’d love to learn about your projects and discover what’s possible.

🌍 Renewable energy curing is no longer a single-technology discussion. It’s a system decision.

Replacing gas ovens with UV and electron beam technologies reshapes line architecture, integration, surface control, and investment strategy.

IONOMY brings together specialists across coatings, curing technologies, engineering, and surface protection to support real-world implementation.

Because transformation in coil coating doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens when expertise connects.

Explore the partners behind the ecosystem below.

Major moments create major opportunities.

Global sporting events often leave a lasting legacy far beyond the final whistle. With the FIFA World Cup set to take place this summer, Mexico is expected to see significant infrastructure investment across key cities, helping to deliver new developments while creating thousands of jobs.

As Manoel Torres Rodrigues, Regional Commercial Director at AkzoNobel, recently shared in a special report by Chemical Week and Global Business Reports, this level of investment creates opportunities that extend well beyond stadiums alone. Large scale infrastructure programs often act as a catalyst for broader growth across construction, transport, and urban development - opening doors for solutions such as coil coatings that support durability, performance, and long term value.

It’s a reminder of the role materials and surface technologies play in enabling infrastructure that’s built not just for an event, but for decades of use afterwards, a resilience that matters long after the spotlight moves on.

FLEXTEC™ coil coating systems are designed to meet the needs of HVAC equipment, where performance is essential, but visual impact increasingly matters too.

One of FLEXTEC’s key strengths is its extensive colour range. From clean neutrals to bold, distinctive shades, the system offers manufacturers the freedom to align equipment design with brand identity, architectural surroundings, or evolving market trends, without compromising performance.

Behind the colour sits the coating systems engineered for durability and consistency, helping finishes maintain their appearance across production, installation, and long term use. The result is equipment that not only performs reliably, but also looks the part in visible, design conscious environments.

Because sometimes, colour isn’t just an aesthetic choice, it’s part of the product story. Discover more here: https://coilcoatings.akzonobel.com/emea/flextec-systems/electrical-and-hvac-equipment-coatings

What happens when you remove heat from the coil coating process?

In our latest Partner Spotlight with PCT Ebeam and Integration, LLC, we explore how electron beam (EB) curing is doing exactly that - and why the impact goes far beyond energy savings.

By eliminating the need for thermal ovens, EB technology fundamentally changes how coating lines are designed and operated:

➡️ No strip heating or cooling
➡️ No solvent-related explosion-proof environments
➡️ Simpler processes and reduced maintenance
➡️ More compact production footprints

These are not theoretical gains. EB technology is already being applied in industrial environments, including coil coating.

Within the IONOMY™ ecosystem, PCT Ebeam and Integration, LLC works alongside IST METZ GmbH & Co. KG, GLOBUS S.r.l., Novacel SA and AkzoNobel to help bridge the gap between proven technology and real-world industrial application.

Because making energy curing work isn’t about one technology in isolation. It’s about connecting coatings, curing, application and engineering into a system that works in practice.
