Coating services launched to help improve sustainability

As part of its sustainability strategy, AkzoNobel Powder Coatings has launched Eco+ Services, a suite of technical, digital and data-driven solutions designed to help manufacturers measure, understand and improve the sustainability of their coating operations.

Combining digital tools, technical expertise and verified environmental data, Eco+ Services provides manufacturers with practical insights into coating performance, energy consumption and carbon footprint. The initiative is designed to help businesses translate sustainability targets into measurable operational improvements while enhancing process efficiency and environmental transparency.

“Customers today are looking for more than high-performance coatings,” says Jorrit van Rijn, marketing director of AkzoNobel Powder Coatings. “Manufacturers want partners who can help them run more efficient coating operations and better understand their environmental footprint. Eco+ Services gives customers the insights they need to improve performance and make informed decisions about their operations.”

The new offering focuses on three key areas: application optimisation, energy savings and access to verified environmental data. Application optimisation includes Flightpath Pro, an AI-driven solution developed in partnership with CoatingAI that optimises spray gun settings using cloud-based data analysis. The system helps manufacturers reduce overspray and defects while improving coating consistency and lowering material consumption.

Energy-saving services include carbon footprint and curing line assessments that identify opportunities to reduce energy usage and emissions. Eco+ Services also provides verified environmental reporting tools, including third-party certified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for the Interpon D powder coatings range.

“Our technical expertise has always been central to how we support customers,” declares van Rijn. “By combining specialist knowledge with digital tools and environmental insights, Eco+ Services helps manufacturers improve coating performance, reduce carbon footprint and gain clearer visibility of their environmental impact.”
