- AkzoNobel will present refinish products, custom colors and vehicle builds at the Las Vegas show from November 3 to 6.
- Carbeat, Sikkens products and a new OEM color-matching line are central to the vehicle refinishes program.
- The Axalta combination and the unchanged 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook remain the broader strategic backdrop.
AkzoNobel is heading into the SEMA Show in Las Vegas with new refinish products, custom colors and vehicle presentations. The event runs from Tuesday, November 3, through Friday, November 6, 2026, according to BodyShop Business.
AkzoNobel's vehicle refinishes team will use booth 35144 in the South Hall to demonstrate Carbeat, its digital body shop workflow control solution. Sikkens Autowave Optima and AutoClear 2.0 will also be presented as a combined offering for collision-repair operations.
Product launches take center stage
The program includes three custom vehicle unveilings in the Kindig-It rig at Silver Lot 80041, including a 1969 Dodge Super Bee and two Kindig-It Design CF1 builds. New colors will be added to the Modern Classikk portfolio.
AkzoNobel plans to unveil a new refinish product line on Wednesday for OEM color matching. The event also includes a presentation by Tim Ronak and Sean Preston on three recurring repair-shop mistakes and 30 practical steps covering protection, payment and process.
For investors, the SEMA appearance is an operating and product showcase rather than a new financial target. The broader strategic backdrop is the planned all-share combination with Axalta. AkzoNobel's latest quarterly update kept its 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook at 1.47 billion euros, while management expects the combination to close in early 2027.
