Nippon Paint promotes sports culture amongst school children
Nippon Paint (India) Private Limited (Decorative Division) Asia’s leading paint manufacturer today engaged 1500 football enthusiasts from across Chennai schools and another 200 from football clubs, offering them a chance to witness the ISL match today between Chennayin FC and Delhi Dynamos. The initiative is Nippon Paint’s attempt to create an awareness on child wellness which is not just a result of indoor safety but achieved by healthy outdoor activities too.
Students from VelammalVidyalaya, Paruthipattu, Shree NiketanPatasala, Tambaram&Thiruvallur, Dayasadan Agarwal Vidyalaya, Maduravoyal, Holy Queen Matric Hr. Sec. School, Chrompet and KarunalayaNGO, were amongst the lucky ones who attended the match. Apart from free match passes, they were also given Nippon Paint Chennaiyin FC Jerseys to cheer for their favorite team.
Nippon Paint has always held health and safety for their customers among its primary goals. For the first time in India, it recently introduced the KIDZ paint, a revolutionary child wellness paint built with Anti-formaldehyde, Silver ion and anti-stain technologies. All these qualities make the KIDZ paint an apt choice for painting the interiors of schools and other educational institutions. Its revolutionary technology absorbs harmful chemicals in the air and refreshes indoor and outdoor air enabling an infection-free environment for children.
Speaking about the initiative, Mr. S Mahesh Anand, President – Decorative Paint, Nippon Paint India said, “At Nippon Paint, we have always believed in providing the safest environment to facilitate the healthy growth and development of a child. This is not just restricted to providing a safe indoor environment but also by encouraging them to take up outdoor sports activities to ensure a more holistic development. This move is our attempt to encourage the younger generation of sports enthusiasts to take up sports such as football and to draw inspiration from our loved Chennaiyin FC team.”
