Theory & Practice in Paints and Protective Coatings

Basic information about the seminar

Together with our experienced lecturer and certified corrosion engineer Ing. Ondřej Janča, we are preparing a one-day seminar focused on the theoretical and practical mastery of paints and protective coatings. The seminar combines expert explanation with practical demonstrations that participants commonly need in the laboratory, in production or in quality control.

The seminar is suitable for staff in surface treatment, coating technology, maintenance, production and quality control, as well as for students of technical fields and anyone who wants to gain an overview of coating systems.

The number of places is limited to 12 participants, so we recommend not delaying your registration.
