“The quality of the contacts has been very good,” said Joon
Choo, vice president of Shamrock Technologies. “We met with
a lot of customers on specific technical issues and requirements
that they have for short- and medium-term projects.”
“As expected, CHINACOAT was a very busy event for us,”
said Josh Preneta, global segment manager for coatings, Cabot
Corporation. “The show was well attended by a wide range
of industry participants throughout Asia. We also observed a
strong contingent of visitors from Europe and the Americas.
Cabot launched two new products at the show, Emperor 1200
and 1600, and we received a high level of interest in both prod-
ucts. Overall, it was a very successful show for us. Our booth
was busy almost non-stop from opening to closing on all three
days. We had a number of important customer meetings during
the show. We also made a large number of new connections and
started new relationships at our booth.”
In April 2012, KH Neochem changed its company name from
Kyowa Hakko Chemical. Izumi Yuasa, sales and marketing for
the Specialty Chemicals Division, Performance Materials at KH
Neochem Co., Ltd., said that CHINACOAT 2012 was the ideal
place to showcase the company’s new start.
