YAROSLAVL, Russia – DuPont Russian Coatings LLC has opened a technical center in Russia dedicated to the development of high-performance automotive coatings. The facility is located at the Yaroslavl, Russia, headquarters of DuPont Russian Coatings, a joint venture established in 2006 by DuPont and Russkie-Kraski to supply coatings to manufacturers of automobiles and commercial vehicles in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
The new research and development center’s primary focus is adapting the technical properties of new coatings materials to the line conditions at new car manufacturers’ plants and at the operations of plastic parts makers. The lab’s close proximity allows the 15 scientists staffing the new center to better anticipate and respond to the needs of the fast-growing Russian auto industry.
