Powder Production at IGP Pulvertechnik AG

“Le Corbusier is one of the most important architects of modernism. Unique things are created when the visionary and the products of IGP Powder Coatings come together.” - Morris Breunig (Editor Architecture & Technology)

Le Corbusier was not only an important architect, but also a visionary artist and designer who developed a purist color theory for modern architecture. His “Polychromie Architecturale” color system comprises 63 shades that can be harmoniously combined with each other and are still used in architecture today.

Through a unique partnership with Les Couleurs Suisse AG, IGP Powder Coatings has the exclusive license to offer these colors in the form of powder coatings. This exclusive license allows IGP to make Le Corbusier's deep matt and elegant shades available for modern architectural projects worldwide.
