Theme of the Exhibition:

The coatings industry is a highly raw-material intensive industry accounting for over 65% of manufacturing costs. This exhibition aims to facilitate a buyer-seller interaction between manufacturers and distributors of raw materials with their customers in the form of paint manufacturers from across India and the globe. The same concept extends to paint manufacturing equipment and tools for quality assurance. The PAINTINDIA series of exhibitions, over the years, have proved to be a prime forum for this kind of buyer-seller interaction within the coatings industry, leading to extremely satisfactory levels of direct business and generation of leads.

From the application perspective, the coatings industry is an often misunderstood and under-exposed industry where the interaction with consumers is extremely limited, leading to a large communication gap between suppliers and user. This exhibition presents a prime opportunity for suppliers of such solutions to inter act with a client profile that transcends various application segments.

Who Should Exhibit / Exhibitors' Profile?

The exhibitors' profile for this module of the exhibition encompasses manufacturers and distributors of paint raw materials, manufacturing equipment, analytical instruments, testing equipment and services, paint conveying and handling systems, colour matching tools, dispensing machines, etc.

Besides this, with the PAINTSHOP 2010 Segments the exhibitors' profile is also expanded to include paint manufacturers and formulators for both liquid and powder applications, manufacturers of pre-treatment and corrosion prevention chemicals, manufacturers of spray-guns and other paint application equipment, paint booths for OEM applications and quality assurance systems.

Who Should Visit?

This exhibition is a must-attend for the purchase and technical faculty within the coatings industry to understand the latest materials and technologies available. Further, with the marketing of coatings systems integrally linked to characteristics and performance of coatings, it also becomes imperative for the Marketing and Commercial personnel from the paint manufacturing industry to attend and understand the potential that new products and technologies present. Besides this, it is an extremely important forum for all raw material manufacturers to keep themselves abreast of competition and the latest happenings in their field. It could also be an interesting forum for users of coatings to understand the supply chain and also new technologies that could eventually assist their product development and improvement directly or indirectly.

End-use industries that would particularly benefit from this module are the Automotive OEM industry and also its entire chain of vendors engaged in coating of automotive components. Besides this, anybody who uses paints and coatings as a means of structural protection, like the chemical industry, power and thermal plants, the transportation segment in its entirety, the off-shore and exploration industry also gets a chance to understand the numerous technologies available to them, and also compare them. The metal-working industry and also the general industrial segment, encompassing appliances (white and brown goods), those involved in infrastructure development calling for huge paint and coating demands, and also the marine industry would also be immensely benefited from this exhibition module. The various levels of specifiers and quality-assurance personnel relevant to all these segments would also get first-hand knowledge of coatings systems. It promises to be an interesting forum for users of coatings to understand the multitude of options relevant to them and evaluate them on a cost-benefit perspective, and also understand coatings as a part of the entire system. It would also be an ideal forum for coatings manufacturers and users alike to deliberate on the various coatings-related requirements specific to their areas of operation and interest.
