BASF Coatings' Salcomix brand paints are popular in Pakistan. The products are supplied to bodyshops and industry by Crisis Management, the Salcomix importer in Pakistan. The importer has just hosted a two-day training course for industrial coating applications. Salcomix trainer Christian Strothmann offered instruction to vendors, technicians, sales reps and spraypainters from Pakistan and BASF employees from Thailand. Ali Rajabali of Crisis Management praised both the course and the products: "Salcomix has a great product portfolio and offers excellent training opportunities."
For Strothmann, hands-on demonstration and practice are particularly important. "It is very important for the participants to test the various applications themselves and to gain their own experience and learn from it." The training seminar also addressed topics such as occupational safety and the basics of the Salcomix system, as well as hardware and software for color matching. In addition, it covered important aspects of pretreating and cleaning substrates such as steel and aluminum and basic features like product properties and application.
