BCF Members Support Surface Engineering Leadership Forum
COVENTRY, UK — At a launch event in the House of Lords, representatives from the surface engineering and coatings sectors met with parliamentarians, academics and Lords to recognize the importance of the sector in driving manufacturing growth in the post-Brexit UK. Lord Whitby, President of the Surface Engineering Association, hosted the event. The sector has ambitious plans to grow to £25 billion by 2025, and in turn create over 50,000 new jobs in British manufacturing.
British Coatings Federation (BCF) members present at the event included AkzoNobel, BASF, Fujichem Sonneborn, Indestructible Paint, Jotun Paints, Paint Services Group and Schloetter Co.
