About the show

Shanghai International Automotive Coating and Painting Technology Exhibition covers coatings for vehicles and the equipment that applies them, from resins, pigments and additives through waterborne, solvent-free, high-solids, powder and UV coatings to paint lines, coating processes, surface treatment and the handling of waste, water and exhaust air.

It is aimed at vehicle makers and component suppliers buying coatings, coating line equipment and treatment processes, with the range arranged along the paint line: pre-treatment, primer and topcoat, curing, inspection and surface finishing.
