AkzoNobel’s new logistics hub, which is set to become the company’s largest warehousing base in China, is on course to be completed by the middle of 2023. Located at the company’s decorative paints site in Songjiang, Shanghai, the new €10.3 million facility—
a nerve center for production, storage, and transport—will use intelligent digital technologies and advanced security management to customize storage and operation modes for different product categories.
“Eastern China is a strategically important region for us, and the new facility will ensure that we’re well placed to meet the steady growth in demand, which is expected over the next 10 years,” said Mark Kwok, AkzoNobel’s president of China/North Asia and business director for Decorative Paints China/North Asia.
