“We are very excited about debuting our new Alesta AR400 Axalta Silver and AR400 Bone White Pearl colors,” explained Craig Dietz, Axalta Product Manager. “Adding these beautiful coatings to our Alesta AR400 collection demonstrates our commitment to expanding our color offerings while maintaining durability and performance to meet our customers’ various needs.”

Both Alesta AR400 Axalta Silver and AR400 Bone White Pearl produce a smooth, metallic coverage with excellent abrasion and corrosion resistant properties. All AR400 powder coatings contain virtually no volatile organic compounds or targeted hazardous air pollutants, making them a sustainable and environmentally conscious option.

AR400 Axalta Silver and AR400 Bone White Pearl meets or exceeds the American Architectural Manufacturers Association AAMA 2604 standard for high performance organic coatings on aluminum extrusions and panels. Improved storage stability, coverage, and transfer efficiency creates uniform coverage on parts and makes it easier to fill in scratches and reduce excessive thickness.
