Axalta Coating Systems Ltd., known for providing innovative and sustainable coating solutions for the automotive industry has introduced ‘Acquire Color Compact’ spectrophotometer. It is aimed at addressing the automotive industry’s longstanding requirement of colour matching. These requirements come from the body shops where the deck searches and spray tests are known to be time-consuming. Making it available in the Asia-Pacific region including China, India, Korea, Southeast Asia and Australia, the global supplier of liquid and powder coatings is eyeing a larger customer base with this launch. Not only is the spectrophotometer claimed to be small in size and light in weight, but it is also positioned as affordable too. “A powerful demonstration of Axalta’s commitment to total customer support, our next-generation spectrophotometer benefits from the power of all the digital platforms,” pointed, Simon Lee, APAC Refinish Business Director, Axalta.
