Muttenz, April 5, 2017 - Clariant, a world leader in specialty chemicals, addresses current coatings trends of health and well-being, convenience and multifunctionality, aesthetics, and efficiency in its new innovations to support the industry's development unveiled at European Coatings Show.

It's love., the Clariant Color Galaxy at ECS Booth 7-123 invites visitors on a journey through new cutting-edge ingredients and comprehensive color ranges that respond to current trends and market needs and recognize the shared underlying factor of sustainability.
Clariant also updated on its EcoTain® label as the company systematically integrates sustainability into its offerings.

We support the trend to environmentally-compatible, odorless paints and an increasing interest in eco-labels and bio-based ingredients. We offer solutions that fill specific gaps in efficiency by streamlining paint production process and/or reducing formulation complexity. We're enhancing a coating's ability to achieve protective functions and deliver desired aesthetic appeal, and boosting ease-of-use and storage stability required to bring greater convenience to consumers and manufacturers."
