2024 Color of the Year,

Sherwin-Williams introduces its 2024
Color of the Year Upward SW 6239,
a breezy and blissful shade of blue that
evokes the ever-present sense of peace
found when slowing down, taking a
breath and allowing the mind to clear.
“Upward SW 6239 represents the
gentle forward momentum in all of our
lives,” said Sue Wadden, director of color
marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “It brings
to life that carefree, sunny day energy that
elicits a notion of contentment and peace.
With this color, we invite our consumers
to take a pause and infuse a new sense
of ease and possibility into their spaces
– one that doesn’t overwhelm, but rather
establishes meditation and tranquility.”
To bring this light and buoyant hue
to the lives (and tastebuds) of consum-

2024 Color of the Year.
Bluebird reimagines pastel blue with a
bold yet pale hue that uplifts and com-
forts, serving as a platform for mod-
ern minimalism while celebrating the
beauty of natural tones and textures in
perfect harmony.
“Bluebird evokes joy and contentment
within a space, embracing consumer de-
sire for ‘dopamine décor’,” said Ashley
Banbury, Krylon’s color marketing man-
ager. “Bluebird is a welcoming color that
harmonizes effortlessly with both warm
and cool shades and facilitates a balance
in pairing accent colors, vintage furnish-
ings and modern elements. Its soft yet
sophisticated tone pushes the boundaries
of transformation that pale shades can
achieve on a wide range of materials.”
The resurgence of vintage and eccen-
tric home décor continues to captivate
DIYers and crafters as they strive to cre-
ate spaces rich in meaning and personal-
ity. In an era where sustainability takes
center stage, Bluebird’s exuberant yet
versatile tone is the perfect medium for
breathing fresh life into unique second-
hand or antique pieces.
“Krylon embraces the creative explo-
ration of reducing and reusing materials,
and Bluebird aligns perfectly with this
ethos by giving DIYers an opportunity to
refresh and revive décor in a contempo-
rary color,” said Banbury. “Bluebird is the
perfect accent to add a refreshing touch
to home interiors and inject modern per-
sonality into any space.”
Curated based on Krylon’s analysis of
today’s most up-to-date trends, Bluebird
is a new color offering in the Fusion All-
In-One spray paint product line, which
provides 5X stronger adhesion compared
to Krylon general purpose paints on dif-
ficult surfaces such as plastic, metal and
wood, and ready-to-assemble furniture
without sanding or priming.

Mexico Battles Black Market in Derivatives

T
he Mexican government’s battle against the black
market in fuel and other petroleum derivatives is put-
ting pressure on the nation’s paint and coatings pro-
ducers, according to the Asociación Nacional de Fabricantes
de Pinturas y Tintas (Anafapyt), the national coatings
trade association.
The government effort to control the black market took the
form of a declaration by the Secretaría de Energía en México
(SENER), the energy ministry, on October 23 that includes a
requirement for petroleum product importation approval and
usage follow-up reports for domestic manufacturers. Reports
suggest that 68 individual petrochemicals will fall under
these rules.
SENER is seeking to document import volumes, destina-
tions and end use in such a way that the paint and coatings imported in a traditional way,” Anafapyt said.

Others agree. ”No one wants to have unfair markets, but
what they fear is the issue of implementation; that instead of
becoming a regulation to prevent smuggling, it becomes an-
other burden for the people who do import legally,” Alejandra
León, associate director of S&P Global Commodity Insights,
told Reuters on October 27.
Logistics, Storage Facilities Affected

The government measures will not only affect end users of pe-
troleum-based imports, but also the logistics and storage net-
work in the country, Anafapyt warned.
“Likewise, the investments made in the terminals to import
certain products would be put at risk, which would destabilize
the market and leave private companies without the ability to
operate correctly in the country. In addition, the activities es-
tablished in the decree require planning in ordering the goods
and, in some cases, they are already in transit, so a reasonable
time is required to obtain said permits from the agency,” the
association said.

Anafapyt said.
“It also establishes non-tariff mea-

Recently from our R&D labs we have continued developing coatings
additives with enhanced new carbon content with alkyl silicones as
well as polyether silicones. By procuring the organic components
from botanical sources instead of petroleum feedstocks, we have
increased the new carbon content of classic coatings additives by
up to 70% while retaining performance.
We have also applied our Q resin technology platform developing
several approaches to water beading and protection on fabric, leather
and coatings with these unique cross linkers. Most recently we have
shown oleophobicity, relevant to PFAS replacement.
