PPG donates newest digital tools to Keuda, Finnish vocational school

PPG continues to support education across Europe. Last week we were in Finland, presenting the donated PPG digital tools and MoonWalk, automated mixing machine, to Keuda.

"The introduction of the Moonwalk paint mixing system is another step towards better and more sustainable car painting training in Keuda. This is a huge technological leap in car painting education. Our cooperation with PPG enables us to receive even better training that meets the needs of the industry," says Riikka-Maria Yli-Suomu, Managing Director at Keuda Group.

At the inauguration event, Cora Refinish and PPG together presented the new digital tools.

The Refinish trade is undergoing a rapid transformation these years; manual processes are being replaced by digital and more sustainable solutions. The donation of the PPG LINQ tools gives Keuda the opportunity to create a state of the art car paint education based on the newest tools in the market. 

The PPG LINQ package offers digital solutions for every step of the repair process - from color reading and color matching to color mixing with MoonWalk. 


By partnering with schools like Keuda, we "hope to attract more talent to the industry trade and to help mitigate the lack of skilled labour within the industry.

It was great seeing the students at Keuda showing interest in the new tools, being attentive, and generally creating a good atmosphere. We are happy to support the new educational programme which will create a modern education at the forefront of developments in the Refinish trade, " says Henrik Friis, Nordic Marketing Manager, PPG Refinish.
