Exhibitors and Industry Leaders – Start your Engines Now!


The third American Coatings SHOW is moving to Indianapolis, Indiana, May 8-10, 2012

Despite economic difficulties, the second American Coatings SHOW was a great success and the highlight event of the US paint and coatings industry. Once again, the Show and Conference will be the best source of inspiration and trend-setting in the industry. Exhibitors and visitors alike have been quick to recognize that not only is the American Coatings SHOW the leading North American industry show and conference, but it also provides immediate, valuable business opportunities, as well as a complete portfolio for the production of high-grade and competitive coatings, paints, sealants, construction chemicals, and adhesives.

Featuring 328 exhibitors, the second American Coatings SHOW hosted 6,700 industry attendees from 61 countries. Visitors gained valuable insight into state-of-the-art developments ranging from raw materials, laboratory and production equipment, to testing and measuring equipment, as well as services for the coatings industry.

Offered in conjunction with the American Coatings SHOW, the American Coatings CONFERENCE invites technical professionals supporting the coatings industry to learn about the most recent research results and industrial developments, covering the full range of coatings products and the wide range of raw materials used in their formulation. The American Coatings CONFERENCE will be held May 7-9, 2012.

In 2010, the American Coatings CONFERENCE featured almost 100 presentations. There were 958 participants from 40 countries in attendance, which marked a significant increase in visitors compared to the premiere held two years previously.

The 2012 American Coatings SHOW gives you, the exhibitor, the inside track on future trends and the latest developments in the paint and coatings industry. Providing the most current information through an extensive display of products, the show and conference will also bring together top coatings development decision-makers for a high-level exchange of information.

The American Coatings Association and Vincentz Network, together with NürnbergMesse North America, have designed an outstanding industry event. While offering many parallels to the European Coatings SHOW, the American Coatings SHOW will provide a strategic and operational alignment that will be invaluable to the industry.

So, don’t wait. Secure the “pole position” – as an exhibitor at the American Coatings SHOW 2012!
