The supply chain crisis, which began as a shortage of shipping containers and labor at certain west coast port facilities, quickly morphed into a long-term breakdown of the nation’s supply chain infrastructure. The NACD explores the ongoing U.S. supply chain crisis as it relates to the paint and coatings industry.
PCI recently talked to Eric R. Byer, President and CEO of NACD, about the effect the global pandemic has had on chemical distributors, the outlook for the coatings market, and current legislation that the NACD is actively involved in to protect the chemicals industry.
From changes in the marketplace to government policies that have the potential to reduce economic output, distributors must be savvy in navigating this complex landscape. Fortunately, NACD members are well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities when they arise while demonstrating their commitment to safety and government regulators through their participation in Responsible Distribution.
