Axalta today announced its 2025 Global Automotive Color of the Year – Evergreen Sprint. This marks the 11th year Axalta has introduced its automotive color of the year and the second time it has featured a green shade. Evergreen Sprint is a rich, deep forest green that pays homage to the legendary British racing green, a shade that has graced the finest racing machines and symbolizes speed and performance.
Axalta has been named as a recommended refinish supplier for BMW Group where BMW private paint label, ColorSystem, is not present. The new agreement, effective from January 2025, is valid for several years and includes BMW Group’s network of dealerships and collision repair shops in over 50 countries worldwide.
The shortage of skilled labour in bodyshops, particularly refinishers, is a complex issue. Attracting talent to the industry requires alignment of several multifaceted points: it’s an industry that has a historic reputation for being hands-on, manual, dirty and potentially dangerous; today’s young people don’t expect a job for life but rather will “test and taste” different careers; and refinishers and mechanics have little to no visibility with car owners so they may struggle to find a true sense of job satisfaction
