AkzoNobel, one of the world's largest paint companies by revenues, has announced investment worth over €30 million in a manufacturing facility in Thailand. This move supports the company's growth within Thailand as well as in line with its regional business expansion plans.
The manufacturing facility is supported by the Thailand Board of Investment which will involve construction of a 120,000m2 site within the Hemaraj Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate in Chonburi. The facility will have an initial capacity of 45,000 tons annually with production slated to start in Q3 of 2016.
The new facility is expected to help AkzoNobel's performance coatings businesses, particularly metal coatings, protective coatings, specialty coatings and marine coatings as well a few products from its decorative paints business.
