AzkoNobel's coil coatings business provides paint for metal substrates used on buildings such as roofing, siding, gutters, etc. Many of those require a primer in order to prevent corrosion. AzkoNobel has developed and launched primer systems that don't use traditional anti-corrosive pigments which can be based on Cr(VI) and Cr(III) technology. This chrome-free primer technology has been proven out in the field and also across the world in different climate.
