Coating technology has undergone a sea change in the past few years to become a flexible coating process for innovative surface functions. Today, barriers and multifunctional surfaces can meet complex requirements for a wide range of applications in an endless variety of sectors. We are also observing new technological solutions for upgrading smart products as another emerging trend.
The attendees will benefit from a profound overview about current scientific trends and industrial developments in coating technology for printing and packaging solutions or for special-purpose applications.
