Nippon Paint Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Tomofumi Enomoto) announced that its heavy-duty anti-corrosive coating 'Danziora E Primer' has been selected as a 'Recommended Technology' for FY2026 by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) on April 27, 2026. This selection was made from technologies registered in the New Technology Information System (NETIS) (NETIS registration number: CG-250006-A).
NETIS is a database for sharing and providing information on new technologies to promote their use in public works. 'Danziora E Primer' was registered in NETIS on September 30, 2025, in recognition of its 'high barrier property' and 'high anti-corrosive performance on rusted surfaces,' which simplify surface preparation, improve anti-corrosion quality to lower life-cycle costs, and reduce construction constraints.
Every year, MLIT selects breakthrough and useful new technologies from NETIS as 'Recommended Technologies,' 'Semi-Recommended Technologies,' or 'Evaluation Promotion Technologies' through screening by external experts. This time, 'Danziora E Primer' was selected as a 'Recommended Technology' as a breakthrough technology that contributes to further improving the technical standards of public works.
The product inhibits the intrusion of corrosion factors through high barrier properties and utilizes a 'rust conversion function' to quickly transform rusted surfaces into a stable structure, exhibiting excellent anti-corrosion performance. In surface preparation, it allows for up to three times the residual salt compared to conventional specifications, leading to a reduction in water washing time. Furthermore, because it can be painted directly onto rusted surfaces, the time required for surface preparation is significantly shortened, contributing to longer infrastructure maintenance cycles and shorter construction periods.
Technologies selected as 'Recommended Technologies' are easier to propose for use in public works. Additionally, compared to regular NETIS-registered technologies, contractors using these technologies can receive higher points in comprehensive evaluations and construction performance scores, providing benefits to both clients and contractors.
Nippon Paint will continue to address social issues through the development of products and technologies that contribute to the maintenance and management of social infrastructure.
