Vehicle Refinish

Refinish coatings must restore original appearance and protection after repair. Arkema’s refinish resins ensure aesthetics, application versatility and fast return-to-service, enabling repair professionals to match finish and performance efficiently.

OEM – Vehicle Manufacturing

Automotive OEM coatings must deliver durability and premium aesthetics under weathering, UV, corrosion and chemical and mechanical stress including scratching and stone chipping.. Arkema provides high-performance binders that offer gloss, DOI, color retention and UV durability while meeting stringent OEM process and appearance requirements. Sartomer® UV resins further enhance surface clarity and durability for applications such as headlights.

Flagship product for automotive coatings

    

Arkema delivers high-performance solutions for traffic marking paints, combining fast-drying acrylic latex binders with specialty additives to meet stringent regulatory and durability requirements. ENCOR® DT binders enable rapid return-to-traffic, strong adhesion and long-lasting visibility, while COADIS™ dispersants and rheology modifiers improve pigment dispersion, formulation stability and application properties. Together, these complementary technologies support robust performance under demanding outdoor conditions and help formulators optimize drying speed, durability and compliance.
