  • AkzoNobel, the Dutch paint and coatings manufacturer, is set to lay off up to 211 staff in France, approximately 16% of its local workforce.
  • The reorganisation will take place from May 2025 to the end of 2026, while also creating 29 new jobs.
  • They will invest 22 million euros to upgrade the Montataire site, aiming to establish it as a flagship for decorative paint production.
  • Previously announced global job cuts include 2,000 positions by the end of 2025, with closures occurring in Ireland, the Netherlands, and Zambia.
  • This restructuring comes in response to challenges like post-COVID slowdowns and rising costs, targeting a savings of 120 to 150 million euros annually.
