Interpon

Mighty Velo is constantly innovating and researching new colours in order to give you the broadest palette of amazing and trendy frame colours. Just like how the fashion industry makes and distributes its own selections, we strive to stay abreast of and trailblaze aesthetic trends.

We are proud to present three exclusive Birdy frame colours, creatively imagined and developed in a special Birdy x Interpon collaboration. In 2021, the Limited Edition Birdy P40 first appeared with Interpon D2525 architectural powder coating made by AkzoNobel.

WHO IS AZKONOBEL?

AkzoNobel is the largest powder coatings company, headquartered in the Netherlands, that supplies to key markets such as Automotive, Architectural, General Industrial, Appliance and Furniture markets.

The brand, Interpon D, is AkzoNobel’s global product range in the Architectural market that offers a complete range of premium grade architectural powder coatings meeting all major international architectural standards and specifications.

Now imagine that our Birdy range of models, including the Birdy New Classic and our Birdy Gen 3 models, use the Interpon D2525 series of ultra durable powder coatings developed and made in Europe. This series has been used in coating solutions for the most prestigious building projects in the world for the past 15 years.

Providing excellent levels of weather resistance, the Interpon D2525 coating series offers significantly higher gloss retention and resistance to colour change. AkzoNobel is also the first major powder coatings manufacturer to achieve a third-party certified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its coatings.

An EPD includes a life-cycle analysis of the raw materials used in the product, manufacture of the product itself, shipping to the customer, and application.

WHY DO WE USE INTERPON D2525 COATING ON OUR BIRDY BIKES?

We have chosen three colours in the Interpon Collection Futura Series because this highly durable premium powder coating has special metallic effects and excellent weathering resistance compared to standard durability products. The aesthetics of your Birdy bike will thus last longer.

DELIVERING A SPECIAL EFFECT TEXTURED FINISH TO THE BIRDY NEW CLASSIC AND BIRDY GEN 3 MONOCOQUE BIKE FRAMES

Three high-quality architectural ultra-durable powder coatings from the Collection Futura Series, intended for use on exterior architectural metal components and aluminum and galvanized steel, have been selected as premium powder coating on our Birdy bikes:

Granite

GRANITE is a metallic, warm and elegant grey tone in finely textured grain.

Gemstone Blue

GEMSTONE BLUE is a dark, intense, nuanced tone of textured blue with a metallic sand-blasted finish.

Sandstone

SANDSTONE is a softened neutral with a finely textured gloss and a metallic sand-blasted finish.

Granite/Gemstone Blue

GRANITE/GEMSTONE BLUE combines elegant gray and intense blue for a unique and timeless look.

These four textured special effect and metallic finishes are made with Interpon’s D2525 technology – an ultra-durable powder coating that meets the demanding weathering requirements of the leading industry specifications.
