Contributing to Carbon Neutrality: In-Mold Coating Technology in Automotive Manufacturing

This innovative technology integrates resin molding and surface coating into a single process by injecting paint directly into the mold during the molding of automotive resin parts.

Our Target Line Paint helps make automated driving a reality

Nippon Paint’s Target Line Paint enables LiDAR to recognize black paint, such as paint used on asphalt road surface, by using a technology that controls the intensity of reflection according to the wavelength of light.

Decorative films

Our decorative films have outstanding performance in terms of both stretching and hardness, which we achieved by using the automotive coating technologies that we have acquired over many years. These films have an excellent reputation among our customers.

Anti-viral technology using visible light responsive photocatalyst

We have applied photocatalyst functionality to suppress the virus activity to paints. The use of such paints for architectural interiors achieves a safe and reliable living environment.
