AkzoNobel

AkzoNobel is a major industrial company – a leading supplier of paints and coatings and a key global producer of specialty chemicals. Our business is based on three core principles – Safety, Integrity and Sustainability – and we deliver breakthrough, sustainable solutions for our customers and society.

We produce brands such as Flexa, Sikkens and Alabastine and Jozo salt.

Human Cities

All our beliefs and activities come together in our Human Cities initiative. By the 2050s, more than 70 percent of the world’s population will live in cities. With 60 percent of our products in the buildings, infrastructure and transportation end-user segments, AkzoNobel can play an important role in this transformation.

As a responsible company it is our intention to make city life more energizing, inspiring and vibrant. Transcending the purely functional we will help cities and their citizens to connect on an emotional level. We are already helping cities worldwide to focus on issues including color, heritage, transport, sport, education, and sustainability.
