COATINO®

Thank You, ChinaCoat! A Look Back at Three Exciting Days 🤩

The last three days in Shanghai were all about innovation, sustainability, and collaboration as we showcased how @Evonik is shaping the future of coatings under the theme: “We Go Beyond to Formulate the Future.”

✅ 100+ solutions for industrial, decorative, and printing applications
✅ First specialty alumina plant in Asia – expanding powder coating capabilities
✅ Radiation-curing systems setting new benchmarks for durability and adhesion across critical applications

Our commitment to sustainability was front and center:

🌱 No PFAS added solutions
🌱 Bio-based innovations like TEGO® Wet 580 Terra, 100% derived from natural resources
🌱 ISCC-certified mass balance products reducing carbon footprint without compromising quality

With 17 expert presentations across six key topics, ChinaCoat proved to be more than an exhibition – it was a platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Thank you to everyone who visited us and joined the conversation. Together, we’re driving performance and sustainability forward!

🎤 Conference Spotlight: Heike Semmler to Present at EC’s “Understanding PFAS and Reformulating PFAS-free Coatings”

Our colleague Heike Semmler will be speaking at the upcoming @European Coatings Conference on December 3 - 4 in Cologne.

Her presentation, titled “Deaeration & substrate wetting – alternatives to fluorinated technologies”, will explore innovative solutions for solvent-based formulations - especially in wood coatings - where fluorinated compounds have traditionally played a key role.

As regulatory pressure increases, Heike will highlight how specialty modified siloxanes and organic polymer-based additives can offer high surface quality, transparency, and reliable defoaming and deaeration across various application methods. These alternatives not only meet performance demands but also come with favorable regulatory profiles, allowing tailored solutions for specific coating needs.

🔍 If you're working on PFAS-free reformulation strategies, this is a session you won’t want to miss!
