AkzoNobel Paints China's Colorful Yunnan Happy World Theme Park
AMSTERDAM — Colorful Yunnan Happy World, the first theme park in southwest China, has officially opened to the public in Kunming, Yunnan Province. The theme park collaborated with AkzoNobel's Dulux Pro brand to paint around 180,000 square meters of attractions and facilities in approximately 80 different colors.
Painting a theme park is a complex endeavor. Constant exposure to the elements and contact by visitors mean the paints must be resistant to erosion. Professional artists must be able to create colors and textures resembling rock, wood and animal skin, so the paints also need to be capable of producing a variety of effects such as matte, glossy and other specialized textures.
