INTRODUCTION by Takashi SUZUKI and M.Pierre PENIN

	M. Pierre PENIN President of the Technical Committee. Ex Head of PPG Automotive Paints Division

In this time of crisis, it is more important than ever to stay up to date with the latest products, processes and technologies which can provide efficient and cost effective solutions while also addressing the key environmental issues facing the automobile body finishing industry.

SURCAR offers you a unique opportunity to address the following:
 The green challenge of energy saving in paint shops
 The organization of paint shops in Europe and in BRIC countries
 The newest anti-corrosion products and technologies
 How to achieve the next leap forward in performance for clear coat and color development

The 2 days program will focus on how our industry can combine GREEN with LEAN and how we can set the pace by providing and using efficient products and methods while respecting the environment and working in a sustainable manner.

Our technical committee has selected the most relevant and up-to-date technical papers. All presentations and panel discussions will be given by leading authorities in each field. We are also opening SURCAR to other specialists and are honored to welcome a prospective specialist, FUTURIBLES, and a color expert from NELLY RODI.

For the 24th conference of SURCAR, we have introduced a number of changes for our delegates:
 For the first time, SURCAR will take place in Paris at CAP 15, an international business meeting venue.
 An exhibition hall with 18 available booths will solidify SURCAR in its role as the place to do business in the industry!
 Sponsorships opportunities will be available to body finishing professionals wanting to promote their services and brand awareness.

We do hope you will not miss this opportunity to meet with colleagues, current and prospective clients and suppliers! We look forward to welcoming you next June in Paris.
