Jotun Paints has come a long way since 1926 when setting up shop in Norway. The business is now

a global market leader and encompasses marine and protective coatings, decorative paints and

powder coatings. It comprises 71 companies, 40 production facilities across all continents and

agents and distributors in more than 70 countries with over 7,000 employees and a turnover in excess

of £1bn.

This seminar will illustrate how in these demanding times, a single source solution to coating using

all the modern disciplines of the coatings world can make for a more professional, more complete

system. Experience shows this approach is better for the client, better for the architect and the world

we live in.  Jotun accepts and realises that the value in the pursuit of excellence is not about the destination, but

the journey. In the meantime Jotun remain committed to these ideals. Architects and engineers have

the relentless task of sourcing high quality, cost effective decorative and sustainable coatings that need to withstand extreme levels of UV light, humidity, corrosion, high and low temperature and other environmental pollutants to preserve their strength and appearance. Highly skilled

R&D engineers in Norway team up with centres of excellence and laboratories around the world to speed the development of new high quality coating systems.
