Le vernici per il legno non sono solo uno scudo; sono i supereroi del mondo della lavorazione del legno! E non si tratta solo di protezione, si tratta di liberare il pieno potenziale del legno, garantendo che rimanga resistente, radioso e pronto per qualsiasi sfida.
Nel prossimo mese d‘ottobre torna ad Amsterdam il Wood Coatings Congress organizzato da PRA (Paint Research Association, UK) e Vincentz (D). Il congresso si svolge in due giorni, 22 e 23 ottobre e conta su presentazioni tecniche, esposizioni di poster, gruppi di discussione interattivi e una cena di networking.
Il congresso, in inglese, si articolerà in 5 sessioni:
