Comprehensive International Offerings for Industrial Coating Technology - 3rd PaintExpo with More Than 320 Exhibitors

26.07.2010 09:57:49, FairFair GmbH

Oberboihingen – Industrial coating technology will be the centre of attention at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre from the 13th through the 16th of April, 2010. With more than 320 exhibitors – 13% growth compared with the last event in 2008 – the 3rd PaintExpo will present the world’s most comprehensive offerings covering the entire process sequence for liquid painting, powder coating and coil coating. Special attention will be placed on solutions which contribute to reduced consumption of resources and energy and increased process reliability, as well as improved quality, flexibility and environmental compatibility.


Double digit growth amounting to 13% confirms PaintExpo’s strong position within the coatings industry, even in economically challenging times – at the international level as well because roughly 20% of all exhibiting companies come from outside of Germany. But the leading trade fair for industrial coating technology isn’t only demonstrating growth with its exhibitors from 15 different countries, because net exhibition floor space has increased as well by more than 5% to roughly 86,000 square feet.
Jürgen Haußmann, managing director of event promoters FairFair GmbH, sees the reason for this success in PaintExpo’s clear-cut alignment: “Thanks to its representative, comprehensive offerings in all fields of industrial coating technology, PaintExpo is highly appealing to users from all over the world. At the same time, as opposed to the so-called surface finishing trade fairs, the exhibitors know that the expert visitors are interested in industrial coating technologies and attend the trade fair for this reason alone. This distinguishing characteristic is certainly one of the reasons that numerous companies have decided to participate at PaintExpo who have not exhibited here in the past, and who don’t exhibit at any other events in Germany.” This is further confirmed by the fact that a large percentage of the exhibiting companies take advantage of the leading international trade fair to present new products and further developments.

The Mood Continues to Improve
Due to increasing numbers of project RFQs and orders for industrial coating technology over the last several months in Germany, as well as in the rest of Europe, the USA and in Asia, the exhibitors are in a positive mood. The Ifo index for economic climate, which has improved now for the fourth time in a row, indicates that this trend will continue and has now reached a longstanding average. A further indicator is the fact that banks are being less restrictive in granting credit to businesses. This will more than likely make it easier for companies with in-house painting operations and job-shop coaters to make currently necessary investments in increased efficiency through the exploitation of potential savings, for example where energy and materials consumption is concerned. Another central issue which necessitates investment is increased flexibility, because painting and coating of small manufacturing lots and the great variety of colours which is demanded nowadays usually can’t be managed economically with existing systems. And PaintExpo’s exhibitors will present numerous innovations and further developments in these areas as well.

The leading international trade fair for industrial coating technology will be open Tuesday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Exhibition offerings cover systems and application technology, drying, automation and conveyor technology, paints, paint stripping, cleaning and pre-treatment, air supply, exhaust air and water treatment, disposal, measuring and test technology, quality assurance, accessories, job-shop coating, services, training and R&D.
