Description: What would the Eiffel Tower look like if it was painted pink? Have you ever thought about the colour of your refrigerator? Or how it would look if it was not coated? Did you ever wonder what prevents oil rigs from rusting in the fierce conditions of the open sea? Were you aware that applying special coatings to steel constructions make them heat resistant for longer, in case of fire? Did you know that there are considerable environmental benefits and huge fuel savings to be made from protecting the hull of a vessel? When you are planning to repaint your living room, do you consider textures, glossiness and the effects of the quality of paint, in addition to the colour? Is your home as beautiful as you have envisioned, inside and out? Since 1926, Jotun has developed high-quality paints and coatings to protect property and beautify your surroundings. Throughout the years, Jotun has grown to become one of the world’s largest paint companies, with 63 companies and 37 production facilities across the world, employing nearly 10,000 dedicated employees, united by an exceptionally strong corporate culture.
