SCIENCE AND INNOVATION
From April 11-14, 2016, Indianapolis will again be the center of the North American coatings industry.
The fifth edition of the American
Coatings SHO W & CONFERENCE (ACS) is
scheduled for April 11-14, 2016 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis,
Ind. While the show takes place on April
12-14, the conference is held from April
11-13. In 2012, Indianapolis was also the
venue for this major North American coatings industry show and conference.
The ACS is the leading North American industry exhibition and conference
for the coatings, paints, sealants, construction chemicals and adhesives industry. State-of-the-art developments in
raw materials, laboratory and production equipment, testing and measuring
equipment, and services for the coatings
industry will be showcased.
“I expect to see greater participation
in every aspect of the show and conference, as we expand our offerings to attract a broad base of individuals in various aspects of the coatings industry,”
says Cheryl Matthews, vice president,
Events and Expositions, at the American
Coatings Association (ACA).
“All signs indicate that the fifth installment of the American Coatings SHOW will
again break records and exceed all expectations,” adds Amanda Beyer, head of
Coating Events at Vincentz Network, co-organizer of the show. “We are very proud
that, since its premiere in 2008, the ACS
has not stopped growing and gaining importance within the industry. In 2016 Indianapolis will clearly be the place to be
for the coatings industry to network, exchange ideas and be inspired.”
The ACS 2014set new records: with 480
exhibitors and more than 8,700 overall
participants from 70 countries, the fourth
edition of the show and conference broke
all of its previous records.
