Sustainability, nanotechnology, green coatings, rising prices as well as new applications of TiO2 are some of the top trends that are pushing paint and coating innovations. Nuremberg is a must event for anyone wanting to keep up to date on new developments all over the world. Here are 5 good reasons why it pays to visit the European Coatings Show, the world-leading exhibition for paint and coatings from 28 – 30 March 2013.

So whether you work in the automotive, construction chemical, mechanical engineering, aerospace or shipbuilding industry, you’re sure to find the right raw materials, equipment and technologies for your coatings formulation.

The statistics from the past impressively show the importance of the European Coatings Show as world-leading exhibition: 1,156 exhibitors – 10.8% growth, 98% with the products on display.

Meetings, deadlines and pressure of costs. There is often no time for detailed thoughts about tomorrow’s surface finishes during your daily work. The European Coatings Show inspires with the presentation of groundbreaking innovations, whereas the European Coatings Show Conference comprehensively deals with the issues concerning industry-specific production processes and formulation of coatings, paint, adhesives, sealants and construction chemical products.

You meet the crème de la crème at the European Coatings Show.
