PCI Magazine once again exhibited at ChinaCoat with Group Publisher David Lurie filing an exclusive report.
Dressed mainly in suits and ties, and armed with cell phones, this record-setting attendance closely parallels the rapid growth of the coatings industry in China. For the first two-and-a-half days of the event, it was difficult to navigate the show floor because the crowds packed every square meter of the aisles. Booth personnel were kept busy for the duration of the show with visitors picking up technical literature and networking with the 415 companies represented at ChinaCoat.
