AkzoNobel is to create a regional service centre for wood coatings at its Warwick, Quebec site. The facility will become the commercial headquarters for the wood coatings business in Eastern Canada and provide local support as the business’ R&D and Technical Application Center for Canada.
It is due to be fully operational by mid-2016.
The facility will provide services including quick-response small batch manufacturing, product development for the local Canadian market, custom colour matching and commercial and customer support.
