HD Hyundai XiteSolution halves paint-process emissions

HD Hyundai XiteSolution announced the development of a new low-temperature curing paint that significantly reduces carbon emissions during the manufacturing process. The paint, which uses polyaspartic resin instead of traditional acrylic polyurethane resin, lowers emissions by approximately 53% when applied to heavy machinery like excavators and wheel loaders. This innovation reduces the required curing temperature from 80–100°C to 50–60°C, cutting energy consumption and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The company is currently testing the paint on its production lines and aims to implement it across multiple manufacturing sites in South Korea. Once fully adopted, the technology could save 320,000 cubic meters of liquefied natural gas annually and reduce carbon emissions by 689 metric tons. Additionally, the company is developing a low-VOC coating for use in China and on electric equipment production lines, as part of its broader strategy to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
