Hempel’s facility in Polinyà (Barcelona) previously focused on developing the company’s range of antifouling coatings and developing products for Spanish customers. Now, after a €2m expansion project, the R&D Centre will be able to apply its knowledge to support European businesses with protective, decorative and yacht coatings developed specifically to meet European and country legislation.
Hempel also has R&D Centres in China, Korea, Singapore, Bahrain, Denmark, Germany and the US.
