    Today, DuPont Performance Coatings consists of DuPont Industrial Coatings, DuPont Aviation Finishes, DuPont Commercial Finishes, DuPont Refinish, Standox, Spies Hecker, and Nason Finishes. The portfolio includes automotive OEM coatings, automotive refinish coatings, powder and industrial coatings, and Voltatex Energy Solutions.
    For now, Axalta said, the Standox and Spies Hecker brands will continue, as will Cromax and Imron. Axalta will also continue to serve the decorative, architectural, general industrial and job-coater segments of the powder coatings market under the brands Alesta Powder Coatings, NAP-GARD FBE Powder Coatings and ABCITE Powder Coatings.
    Officially, the DuPont Performance Coatings name will linger for several more months; the Axalta name will be formally launched in the second quarter of 2013, about the same time the company’s new website is up and running.
    Until then, Carlyle said:
    • The company will continue to conduct all aspects of business with no interruption;
    • Commitments to all customers will be fulfilled with no change in the products and services;
    • Customers can continue to use any products that carry the DuPont name;
    • Training centers located in 42 locations around the world will continue to operate as usual;
    • All websites that provide information about the company’s business and services will continue to operate—for now, as DuPont Performance Coatings.
