Member Sustainability Stories

[…] City is the largest U.S. private real estate development. The ongoing project completed two towers at 10 and 30 Hudson Yards, with the impressive glass and steel structure of 30 Hudson Yards features the company’s high-performance architectural powder coatings, while 10 Hudson Yards uses our industrial coatings. Most of the aluminium on the larger tower is coated with the company’s Interpon D3000 Fluromax metallic powder coating, including the highly prominent first five stories. The remaining louvers and some of the ornamental metals are coated with our TRINAR liquid coating. The shorter tower at 10 Hudson Yards features our TRINAR coatings on all visible aluminium – both exterior and interior. Our powder and liquid coating products make this Manhattan neighborhood development a LEED-certified sustainable community (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – a global green building certification program) and help the buildings last longer. We’ve also launched our Ceram-A-Star CS 1050 Select offering for LEED-certified buildings. This is our latest development using COOL CHEMISTRY coatings that are applied on metal roofing. The result is a sustainable building material that lowers air conditioning costs, reduces peak energy demand, and helps to mitigate urban heat island effects. When applied on roofs and walls in a hot climate, COOL CHEMISTRY coatings reduce air conditioning costs by up to 15 percent. In our food packaging coatings, we have developed new waterborne BPANI coatings that have a lower embodied carbon footprint and help our customers to optimize their productivity – thus helping them to reduce the carbon footprint in the value chain. One of these sustainable solutions is our Aqualureâ„¢G150 that has allowed our customers to smoothly transition from epoxy-based lacquers while meeting performance requirements. We continue to innovate and develop more sustainable solutions that reduce our carbon emissions in our value chain and help achieve our SBTi approved carbon reduction targets, while at the same time deliver on the high-quality standards that our customers expect from us.

The radiation curing technology, part of the allnex portfolio, is characterized by an energy-efficient profile along with a portfolio of low- to no-VOC products. The technology uses energy-induced radical polymerization, which results in immediate curing of the coating that can be achieved with ultraviolet light or electron beams. Alternative curing mechanisms can be obtained in combination with peroxides and/or in the presence of elevated temperatures. Read More… Because of its performance, high throughput and sustainable profile, this technology is widely used in markets such as industrial wood, packaging, inks and plastic coatings. The replacement of less environmentally friendly technologies, such as solvent-based and acid-catalyzed systems that release volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere, has contributed to the growth rate and interest in this technology. In particular, this shift has affected industrial wood coatings such as furniture and flooring, a trend driven by brand owners and actively supported by allnex. While radiation curing already offers a sustainable profile, allnex is continually  pushing the boundaries to further reduce its environmental footprint by investing in more efficient production processes, increasing the durability of its products and continuing to develop a portfolio of resins that contain safer chemicals and incorporate bio-based building blocks to ultimately reduce its overall carbon footprint. One of these efforts led to the development of EBECRYL®4690, a bio-based energy curable aliphatic urethane acrylate. This one-of-a-kind, patented product contains 30% C14 (measured according to  ASTM D6866) and is tin, solvent and BPA-free. The product combines excellent weathering resistance, high reactivity, a strong abrasion and chemical resistance with a very low yellowing. It is therefore ideal  for both clear and pigmented coatings for exterior and interior applications, as well as for coatings for furniture, kitchen cabinets, floors and panels. The carbon footprint reduction of the material can be estimated as >500 g CO2/kg. When developing the product, allnex considered other key market elements such as […]
