Many coatings and inks manufacturers face increasing challenges for survival, due to various factors including levelling of playing field and keen competitions. On the other hand, many companies, especially small and medium enterprises, in fact have plenty of rooms for improvement. This Technical Workshop will share some experiences to improve efficiency of coatings and inks manufacturing at very low or negligible costs to business owners. In particular, the Workshop will share strategies and methodologies to improve coatings and inks manufacturing companies including optimising various aspects of the business, from production efficiency to customer engagement. The Workshop will focus on the following strategies:

  • Enhance Innovation and Product Quality;
  • Optimise Manufacturing Processes;
  • Diversify and Customise;
  • Focus on Sustainability.

The Technical Workshop will be delivered in a highly interactive format, where delegates will have ample opportunities to ask questions and engage in lively discussions with the tutor.

Automotive refinish is a niche market dominated by few global players. It represents the highest level of coatings technology. Over the past 20 years, advancement of refinish technology has been driven mainly by Government regulations aimed at reducing VOC emissions. In particular, EU Directive 2004/42/CE posts the most comprehensive and challenging VOC reduction requirements for automotive refinish paints and as a result has led to significant refinish technology innovations. This Technical Workshop will make an in depth analysis of EU and US VOC reduction regulations and the technology roadmap to meet these regulations. In particular, the Workshop will focus on the following points:

  • Differences Between EU and US Low VOC Regulations;
  • Why VOC Calculations Must Deduct Water;
  • In Which Products High-Solids Low Viscosity Solvent-Borne Technology is Sufficient and in Which Products Water-Borne Technology Must be Applied;
  • Why 420g/L VOC Metallic Basecoat Can Only be Made by Water-Borne Technology.

The Technical Workshop will be delivered in a highly interactive format, where delegates will have ample opportunities to ask questions and engage in lively discussions with the tutor.
