Synergizing Innovation for a Shared Green Future

TIME :2026-06-16

On June 12, Wanhua Chemical was invited to attend the new product launch event of Nippon Paint China. The two companies have maintained a long-standing, in- depth strategic partnership. The innovative achievements showcased at the event stand as a strong testament to their strengthened collaboration on green low-carbon technologies and coating raw material development.

 

Recently, Yuan Shuai, Vice President of Wanhua Chemical, visited Nippon Paint China and held a themed technical exchange meeting together with Cai Zhiwei, Senior Vice President of the TU Product Development & Management Headquarters of Nippon Paint China, and Zhu Ming, Director of the TU Innovation and R&D Headquarters. During the visit, both sides signed a strategic cooperation agreement, marking the beginning of a new phase of deep joint development.

During the meeting, both sides reviewed the achievements of their long-term collaboration. Despite market fluctuations, the scale of their cooperation in architectural coating emulsions has achieved counter-cyclic growth. Currently, Wanhua Chemical has become a core emulsion supplier of Nippon Paint, while their collaboration in areas such as ADI (aliphatic diisocyanates) and petrochemicals is also advancing steadily.

 

Yuan Shuai, Vice President of Wanhua Chemical, stated, "As a globally operating new chemical materials company with technological innovation as its core competitiveness, Wanhua Chemical possesses profound R&D strengths and a global presence in coating raw materials. Our green chemical technology platform continuously drives the low-carbon transformation of the industrial chain. As a benchmark enterprise in the coatings industry, Nippon Paint has accumulated extensive experience in product implementation, scenario application, and market operations. The deepening of joint development between both sides will accelerate technological iteration and green upgrading in the architectural coatings industry, injecting strong momentum into the high-quality development of the sector."

 

Cai Zhiwei, Senior Vice President of the TU Product Development & Management Headquarters of Nippon Paint China, pointed out, "Nippon Paint has always been committed to leading the advancement of high quality and environmental friendliness in China's architectural coatings. Wanhua Chemical's innovative R&D capabilities and green technologies have provided solid support for us. This strategic cooperation upgrade not only strengthens the synergistic advantages of both sides in the coatings field but will also jointly explore new application tracks for waterborne polyurethanes, driving the industry towards a sustainable future."

 

The strategic cooperation agreement signed this time focuses primarily on new application solutions for waterborne polyurethane in architectural coatings. These solutions achieve upgrades in application scenarios and film performance, combining environmental friendliness with practicality. Moving from basic raw material supply to joint development marks a new phase of technological collaboration between the two sides. Centered on four key themes – "Quality Living," "Green Environmental Protection," "Circular Economy," and "Efficient Protection" – Wanhua Chemical also systematically presented a range of cutting-edge technological achievements, defining project directions for future product co-creation.

 

This upgraded partnership consolidates the long-standing strategic alliance between the two sides and realizes two-way empowerment in technology, resources and markets. Centered on technological innovation and green low-carbon development, it will accelerate green transformation and technical iteration of the architectural coatings industry, and drive the industry toward high-efficiency, eco-friendly and sustainable high-quality development.
