BASF to sell powder business for home
appliances, heating and pipe coatings
BASF Coatings has agreed to sell its
powder business for home appliances,
heating and pipe coatings to Arsonsisi
S.p.A., the powder-coatings branch of
the Junghanns Group, effective April 1.
The transaction encompasses technology, customer lists and the Verbania
powder-coatings plant that currently
employs 63. Customers who currently
purchase both liquid and powder technologies will be henceforth jointly supplied by BASF and Arsonsisi. Both companies will work together during the
transition phase to support the customers. BASF will continue and further
strengthen its business with liquid
coatings for industrial applications. The
agreement with Arsonsisi does not
include BASF’s powder coatings for
light vehicles and commercial transportation. BASF will continue to supply
these customers with products of its
own technology produced under a
tolling agreement with Arsonsisi. The
powder merchandise from Relius
Coatings is also not affected by the
agreement.
