Sikkens Expert IT for iPhone

App snapshot

Sikkens Expert IT is an iPhone application from AkzoNobel Decorative Coatings B.V. designed for painting professionals. It combines color-matching tools with simple project organization so users can keep job details and color selections together in one place. The app is available at no cost and will receive additional functionality in future releases.

Core capabilities

• Exact color capture: scan surfaces or objects with the integrated Colour Sensor to obtain a precise paint match, removing much of the guesswork when selecting shades.
• On-wall previews: display clients’ preferred colors directly on walls to visualize how a shade will look in situ.
• Project organization: create, store and reference project records so specifications, client notes and color choices are easily accessible.
• Progress tracking and references: monitor job status and retrieve color information and project history from the app.

Benefits for trade users

Sikkens Expert IT helps contractors, painters and specifiers work faster and more accurately. By combining color scanning and visual previews with project data storage, the app reduces back-and-forth, speeds decision-making, and keeps all essential information at hand while on site.

Availability and upcoming improvements

The app runs on iPhone and is free to download. AkzoNobel plans to roll out enhancements in coming updates that will expand functionality and refine the user experience.
