CNLC Strengthens Strategic Partnership with AkzoNobel to Enhance Outdoor Coating Performance

Recently, CNLC welcomed the technical team from its strategic partner, AkzoNobel, a global leader in paints and coatings. Both parties engaged in in-depth discussions on powder coating processes for outdoor aluminum structures and customized coating solutions.

As a manufacturer specializing in outdoor LCD and LED digital signage solutions, CNLC is committed to maintaining high standards in product design and material application. Through its long-term strategic partnership with AkzoNobel, CNLC adopts high-performance powder coating systems for aluminum surface treatment, combined with project-specific customization to achieve superior overall performance in demanding outdoor environments.

Through advanced powder coating technology, CNLC’s aluminum enclosures achieve the following key performance advantages:

• Excellent coating adhesion
  Enhances bonding strength between the coating and aluminum substrate, ensuring long-term durability without peeling or flaking
• Outstanding salt spray and corrosion resistance
  Effectively withstands coastal and high-humidity environments, significantly reducing corrosion risks
• Stable weather resistance and UV protection
  Maintains coating performance under prolonged sun exposure and harsh climate conditions
• Anti-fingerprint and easy-to-clean surface (AF coating)
  Reduces fingerprint marks and dirt adhesion, lowering maintenance efforts while keeping a clean appearance
• Long-term protective performance
  Under standard processing conditions and typical outdoor environments, the coating protection system is designed to provide long-term durability, with a service life of up to 25–30 years (depending on application conditions), ensuring reliable long-term operation of the equipment

During the visit, both teams also discussed key topics including coating process optimization, thickness control, production consistency, and performance under extreme environmental conditions. The AkzoNobel technical team provided valuable insights based on CNLC’s production line, further enhancing coating performance and product reliability.

This technical exchange not only strengthened the strategic partnership between CNLC and AkzoNobel, but also reflects CNLC’s ongoing commitment to aligning with international standards in material selection and manufacturing processes.

Looking ahead, CNLC will continue to collaborate with AkzoNobel to optimize structural design and coating solutions for outdoor products, delivering more durable, reliable, and high-quality digital signage solutions for smart city, commercial, and transportation applications.
