Natural wood and organic materials continue to be relevant in today’s interior design. As homeowners seek new and exciting ways to incorporate wood into their homes, Sherwin-Williams presents four color trends that can help you stay ahead.
The new technology is a waterborne wood coating that can be applied across a wide spectrum of environmental conditions, without the productivity-sapping performance trade-offs commonly associated with waterborne coatings.
Going water-based gives manufacturers a route for improving a coating’s environmental impact, and for reducing the carbon footprint. What existing support is available to overcome obstacles for formulators and facilitate the wider adoption of water-based solutions?
Color is one of the most impactful ways to add personality to residential and commercial spaces. With this in mind, Sherwin-Williams offers a look at the color trends currently influencing the design and production of architectural wood products, and why the right coating and finishing technology is essential to bringing those trends to life in any architectural wood application.
Economic factors like construction levels, interest rates, and inflation tend to have a significant impact on the wood finishes market. AkzoNobel works with designers and architects around the world to understand the influence and impact of economics, fashion, lifestyles, and nature on paint and coatings and then translates those insights into products that bring wood to life.
