R&D Center

The 10,000m2 R&D centre is set over 6 floors and houses over 100 color chemists, tasked with continual color matching and formula development.
Using the latest tech equipment, we work with our OEM customers to create colors for their vehicles, using a painting robot working under constant temperature and humidity to perfectly simulate their factory paint lines.

It is also here that our chemists develop new and innovative eco-friendly solutions to ensure our future and that of the planet. We pursue a green economy where we research and develop environmental-friendly waterborne paints, build and promote green paint brands under the principles of Low Consumption, Low Emission and Low Carbon Footprint of all processes.

Collaboration with the industry, universities and academia enable us to not only stay at the forefront of technology, but to lead the industry. Currently, our chemists hold over 30 patents in the waterborne paint category alone.
