AkzoNobel and Axalta Coating Systems have announced that the name of their merged company after the completion of the transaction will be Axanzo. The merger, already underway since November 2025, aims to create a leading global supplier of paints and coatings with the size, strength and reach needed to drive sustainable growth and innovation. The future stock ticker on the New York Stock Exchange and Euronext Amsterdam will be AXZ. Greg Poux-Guillaume, CEO of AkzoNobel, is also expected to become CEO of the new company. Chris Villavarayan, CEO of Axalta, will serve as the new deputy CEO.
The merged company will bring together a broadly diversified and balanced portfolio of roughly 100 established paint and coating brands in more than 160 countries. The transaction is expected to be finalized in early 2027 following the granting of all regulatory approvals and the fulfillment of standard closing conditions. For now, AkzoNobel and Axalta will continue to operate as independent businesses, and the announcement of the new name will not lead to any immediate changes.
