Interpon colours the world

Key data:

Task:
AkzoNobel is the world’s largest manufacturer of pigments and paints, as well as a leading producer of special chemicals. Products supplied under AkzoNobel’s Interpon brand are used in construction and architecture, the automotive industry, furniture, household appliances and general industrial applications.
To convey the extensive product range and the company’s global reach, we were asked to develop a microsite linked to Google Maps JavaScript API.

Solution:
The website developed by 21TORR depicts a “database” of buildings that have been coated with Interpon products. The core idea is to show the world of Interpon powder coatings, used in many different projects, in diverse environments and under a variety of conditions around the globe. Entering the Interpon world in easy: The “explore buildings” function lets users discover specific projects and search by colour, year, architect and more. The structures are brought to life through engaging imagery and integration of Google Street View. Visitors to the website can also take a “guided tour” featuring selected projects that encourage further exploration.
Concept development, design and programming by 21TORR.

Result:
This English website is based entirely on a TYPO3 system. Software developed especially for the project includes the “torr_locations” TYPO3 extension. This extension manages the complex mapping processes, as well as the microsite’s search and filter functions.
