Most of the reputed paint companies such as Kansai Nerolac Paints , Carboline India Pvt Ltd , Tyco Adhesives India Pvt.Ltd , Ashish Coatings Technologies , Graco Inc have stressed the need for this forum to discuss the important aspects of High Performance Coatings for corrosion protection. Present requirements and future planning on the advanced systems needs to be addressed in details to make this subject popular among industry, esp ecially, Oil & Gas, Chemical, Offshore Structures, Navy and Shipping.
To create a forum where all paint related personnel’s can discuss, share their thoughts and work for a common goal for the enhancement of knowledge in paint coatings.
Organize technical meetings by eminent personnel’s from educational institutions and industry on specific topics on paint coatings and surface preparation.
Organize educational courses and training programmes.
Organize at least one major activity as National / International conference to focus new research, inventions in paint coatings and surface preparation.
Possibly work together to make new or modify existing standards suitable for our environment.
