Several industry professionals are going to speak at the event “Organic coatings, the solution for protection and aesthetics: trends and innovations in the industry”.
The Department of Industrial Engineering of the University of Trento has announced that it will dedicate an entire day to the paint and coatings sector with the event “Organic coatings, the solution for protection and aesthetics: trends and innovations in the industry”, organised for 20th June 2023 in Room B107 (Via Sommarive 9, Trento, Italy) in the presence of many experts and professionals from the field.
After a welcome speech by the academic authorities, the day will be divided into two sessions, but it will also offer opportunities for networking and visiting the exhibitors’ stands, as well as a guided tour of the Coatings and Industrial Corrosion Control laboratory (electrochemistry, accelerated ageing, surface abrasion, microscopy) after the lunch break.
Moderated by Michele Fedel and Stefano Rossi respectively, the two sessions will include four presentations each:

- Reinventing steel for a sustainable future – M. A. Fusco (Liberty Magona).
- Alternative applications for cataphoresis – G.L. Gazzola (Arsonsisi).
- Wood coatings: a matter of aesthetics, protection, and application – G. Ciafrè (Renner Italia).
- What evolution can we expect for traditional building and corrosion protection coatings? – G. Di Tanna and L. Pau (AITIVA).
- Paints, an applicator’s point of view – T. Pintarelli (Pintarelli Verniciature).
- Pigments and colours in motion, a short journey between emotion and innovation – S. Corrado (Merck).
