MacDermid Enthone Industrial Solutions announced that it held its second Sustainability Summit in Guadalajara, Mexico. Following the success of the initial Sustainability Summit in Detroit, Michigna this past September, the company hosted the event in Mexico, selected for the thriving vehicle export business that is supported by many plating companies that use MacDermid Enthone products. The summit aimed to inform attendees of new government policies and equip customers with the necessary tools and information to meet the demands of these regulations going forward.
Across North America, these summits brought together original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), tier 1 suppliers, applicators and MacDermid Enthone customers spanning sectors such as automotive, household goods and plumbing. The Guadalajara summit featured detailed presentations from keynote speakers and MacDermid Enthone’s industry experts, on a variety of topics including the impact of low metal electroless nickel processes on sustainability efforts, sustainable solutions in decorative coatings eliminating the need for PFAS, and how to empower zero liquid discharge through water treatment innovations. The session concluded by encouraging attendees to challenge industry norms to pave the path forward to a sustainable future.
