The American Coatings Association (ACA) is seeking nominations for the inaugural David F. Darling Prize. The prize will recognize individuals who, through coatings science, technology, and research, demonstrate innovation in the areas of sustainability and environmental stewardship. Nominations and supporting materials received by December 1, 2022 will allow ACA’s Sustainability Committee to consider honoring the nominee at ACA’s CoatingsTech Conference, which will be held June 26-28, 2023, in Cleveland, Ohio.
The David F. Darling Prize recipient will be announced during the conference, where the winner will be presented with a plaque and accompanying $5,000 monetary prize.
