Starting this year, ABRAFATI and NürnbergMesse are partnering to hold the International Coatings Congress and the International Exhibition of Coatings Industry Suppliers —which this year are rolled into ABRAFATI 2019, set to take place on October 1 through 3 at São Paulo Expo.
Created and held every two years for 15 editions by ABRAFATI, the event is renowned as one of the most important of its kind around the world. It has gained appreciation thanks to the quality of its program and for bringing together leading companies and thousands of professionals, which has had positive effects on the Brazilian and Latin American industries over the course of time in terms of both business and technological evolution.
The partnership with NürnbergMesse, which starts in this edition and involves the operationalization of ABRAFATI 2019, will be a major factor to add all this company's expertise to a trade show that already is very successful, making it take a qualitative leap and reflect the most innovative of developments in existence around the globe.
The NürnbergMesse group is one of the world's leading organizers trade fairs, whose portfolio stands out for covering more than 120 international exhibitions and congresses hosted in various parts of the world. They take care of more than 30,000 exhibitors each year as they contribute to stimulating production in the industries served, finding the best solutions for their customers, and boosting the industry's economy — which goals are a perfect match to those of ABRAFATI's event. Combined with its outstanding ground game around the halls, one of the missions of NürnbergMesse is to usher in contents for participants, while also holding congresses and symposiums, with support from partners and experts in the various segments it serves. This will be the case with ABRAFATI 2019, the largest trade show for solutions from across the paint and coatings supply chain in Latin America, with focus on technology, innovation and sustainability, as well as fostering networking opportunities
The partnership commencing now is also very important to ABRAFATI's mission, as it makes a broad and valuable contribution to our continuing to boost growth and sustainable development in the coatings industry in Brazil by enhancing its quality and capability development with consumer recognition.
