AkzoNobel, the international paints and coverings producer, has announced opening a $10 million plant in Al Quoz in Dubai.
The new plant is AkzoNobel’s sixth manufacturing facility in the Middle East (ME). Moreover, it is the Company’s 30th producing powder coatings worldwide, reported Construction Week Online.
"This investment will further boost AkzoNobel’s position in the Middle East and strengthen our ability to serve the fast-growing regional powder coatings market," said Conrad Keijzer, AkzoNobel's executive committee member responsible for performance coatings.
The plant will significantly increase the Company’s capacity for Interpon and Resicoat products.
Active in 15 countries in the Middle East, AkzoNobel has been seeking to boost its operations in the region. In 2013, the firm acquired a 50% stake, as well as management control, in Oman’s Sadolin Paints, a manufacturer of decorative paints and performance coatings.
