AkzoNobel scores coatings success at Confederations Cup

13-Jun-2013 - Brazil

AkzoNobel has supplied high performance coatings systems for half of the stadiums being used at this month's FIFA Confederations Cup football tournament in Brazil.

Being staged from June 15 to 30, the three stadiums to feature the company's coatings are the famous Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, the Estádio Nacional in Brasília (which will host the opening ceremony) and the Arena Pernambuco in Recife.

Used to protect steel structures (seats and rooftops) and walls, AkzoNobel supplied protective and powder products for the three venues via its International Paint, Interpon and Coral brands.

"Brazil is one of our high growth markets and we are proud to have combined our global scale and local know-how in order to provide integrated solutions to some of the key stadiums that will be used during the Confederations Cup."
