Nippon Paint is the first coatings company to unveil regional paint and colour offerings catered specifically to the Asian palate in its Trend Beyond Colours initiative. With that, Nippon Paint has developed the Automotive Trend Colour (ATC) 2016/17 which has 39 colours, categorised within three themes – Wander-Lust, New Eco and We Are One.
The Wander-Lust colour schemes projects flamboyance and vibrancy in its bright colours while the New Eco colour schemes takes a more subtle approach with nature-inspired colours for a more elegant and contemporary outlook. The We Are One colour schemes offer a more timeless look with calm and pleasant on the eye colours.
Nippon also offers total automotive coating solutions that revolve primarily around its patented CyGLAZ technology. It’s a formula technology that increases the durability of the paint’s coating, enabling it to form a layer of shiny, smooth and durable protective layer of film on the surface of the car.
