SSPC and NACE International Members Vote in Favor of Combining Organizations
PITTSBURGH – The Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC) and NACE International announced that their members have voted to approve the associations’ proposal to combine. During the two-week voting period, thousands of SSPC stakeholders worldwide cast votes, with 88.3% in favor of combining forces with NACE, and 89% of NACE stakeholders voted in favor of combining forces with SSPC.
The vote came after more than a year of discussions between the member leadership of both organizations and a unanimous vote this past February by SSPC’s Board of Governors in favor of a resolution to bring the combination to a member vote, and a vote in March by NACE International’s Board of Directors in favor of the resolution.
