Colorcoat HPS200® Ultra: New and better

Building on the success of Colorcoat HPS200®, the new Colorcoat HPS200® Ultra is based upon a revolutionary coating system, providing dramatically improved colour stability and gloss retention. This step change in performance allows us to extend the market-leading Confidex® Guarantee for up to 40 years.
 
Corus has developed a new colour palette for Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra, introducing environmental colours and tonal shades. These colours work well individually or together and can help buildings blend successfully with their environment. To make the colour selection process easier, the new colour palette has been grouped as follows: Signature, Metallics, Matts and Classic Colours.

Customer Satisfaction

We have finalised the customer satisfaction survey for SAB-profiel and would like to thank all participating customers for their cooperation. The results show that the average satisfaction for all our customers outside the Benelux can be translated to a score of 7.5. Although this is quite a good performance, we would not rest before the score is above an 8. The survey has highlighted some important area's where we obviously perform very good. These area's are the reliability of delivering at the agreed time and product quality, with an emphasize on single sheets and liner trays. Of course we also gained insight in subjects to improve. We will pick up the main issues in the months to come. Should you have any questions, please contact Mr. U. Koppes at telephone number +31 30 687 97 95 or by e-mail at usen.koppes@corusgroup.com

In conclusion, we hope that all customers will be willing to participate in a repeat survey in the future. This will enable us to track developments in customer satisfaction and continue to implement improvements.
