Two kinds of bio-rosin (rosin is a solid form of resin) have been used to create the product, one extracted from rapeseed, the other from pine rosin.

\u201cBoth companies have a long history of developing more sustainable products and we\u2019re proud to have played a role in helping KIA Motors achieve a notable production landmark,\u201d says Patrick Bourguignon, Director of AkzoNobel\u2019s Automotive and Specialty Coatings business.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

As well as obtaining 100% color master approval, the bio-based paint being used on the EV9 also meets all of KIA Motors\u2019 requirements for both chemical and physical resistance (against suncream, air freshener, heat and scratches, for example).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cKIA Motors had a very specific coating requirement for the EV9 and the performance of our bio-based product met all their needs,\u201d continues Bourguignon. \u201cIt\u2019s the latest example of how we as a business continue to develop advanced coatings technology that minimizes environmental impact, without compromising on quality.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

AkzoNobel has been a proud partner of KIA Motors for ten years, and while this new agreement is currently limited to EV9 models produced in South Korea, it\u2019s expected to be extended to several of the vehicle manufacturer\u2019s upcoming EV models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
