ISLAMABAD: Customers in Pakistan now have direct access to AkzoNobel’s coil coatings following the start of production in Lahore – making the company the only local manufacturer of coil coatings in the whole country. Akzo Nobel Pakistan Limited has been supplying imported coil coatings since 2015, alongside a wide range of decorative and specialized performance products. Localizing the manufacture of coil coatings means that providing customers with premium products and services has now become easier, faster and more efficient. “We have been working towards bringing complex technologies to Pakistan for some time,” explains Ismail Naqvi, Business Manager for AkzoNobel Performance Coatings. “Localizing the production of coil coatings will not only accelerate economic activity, but will also increase the skill set and capability of our employees. In addition, local manufacture of robust and sustainable products will increase awareness for our business among customers and future manufacturers of colour coated steel.”
