We are very pleased that our young colleague Phil Patrick Wahl has won this year's "Farbe und Lack Award". We owe this outstanding result to him and his topic of biocide- and VOC-free, non-dusting, flake-shaped polyurethane thickeners. Year after year, it is an extraordinary challenge to prevail against the strong competition of other authors. This year, the topic, the text and the author swung the pendulum in favor of BYK.

BYK Netherlands realised a brand-new set of solar panels on the roof of its site in Denekamp. This will be the second location – besides Deventer - that creates energy through a sustainable source in the Netherlands. The warehouse roof is stacked with 444 solar panels which generate approximately 145.000 kWh of green electricity annually.
