For the first time in Oman, Berger Paints
hosted a two-day program on Advanced

The program was delivered by Prof.

experience in the coatings field across
the world. Besides teaching, he has conducted training programs and consulted
for numerous Fortune 500 companies. He
holds more than 20 patents and has numerous publications to his credit.
The comprehensive training was de-
signed to impart valuable knowledge
on global paint market, wood and wood
substrates, wood coating technology, wa-
terborne coatings, emerging technology
in wood finishes such as UV and Nano-
technology, wood coating in practice as
well as environmental and safety stan-
dards. All participants who completed

This event is part of Berger Paints’
“Continued Professional Training” series
that regularly organizes events. Through
conferences, classroom training and
seminars, the company acts as a responsible corporate citizen facilitating continued learning.
Berger Paints used this platform to
introduce premium quality products that
are environment friendly as well. Out of
the six, five products are under Touch
wood brand. These include pigmented
polyurethane for interiors; UV curable
range; wood preservation that protects
against borer, termite and common pest
attacks; low VOC polyurethane clear
coats and water based polyurethane fin-
ish. In addition, a range of high perfor-
mance polyurethane finishes in gloss, silk-
matt and pigmented were also launched
under the Emporio brand.
“The strength of our brand lies in innovative ideas and technological development, both of which are projected in
the new wood finish products along with
the line of Textiles, Dunes, Safari and
Kids range by Royale Play introduced last
month. We have a reputation of being
the trend-setters for unique concepts in
the industry,” said P.K. Raj, general manager, Berger Paints.
