Axalta Coating Systems, a leading global supplier of liquid and powder coatings, will exhibit at the Society for Protective Coatings 2017 (SSPC 2017) conference at the Tampa Convention Center in Tampa, Florida on January 30 - February 2, 2017.

During the conference, Axalta experts will exhibit Nap-Gard® functional powder coatings at booth #739. SSPC 2017 is the only show in North America whose sole focus is on protective, marine, industrial, and commercial coatings.

Axalta will feature innovative, new advancements to its functional pipeline portfolio of Nap-Gard fusion bonded epoxy (FBE) powder coatings. Designed to be effective in extremely harsh environments such as wastewater treatment facilities and saltwater settings, Nap-Gard provides corrosion protection on external and internal pipe coatings with single, dual, and multi-layer application options, and is also ideal for valves and rebar.

“We are excited to exhibit at the SSPC 2017 conference,” said Meghan Hodge, Axalta Global Product Marketing Manager for Functional Coatings. “The opportunity to showcase our effective Nap-Gard product line, including our last high temperature tolerant interior pipe coating, and to discuss the importance of corrosion protection with the pipeline industry is very important, as we continue to bring high-performing functional products to the marketplace.”

During the show, professionals from around the world can receive training on new coating technology, learn about the industry’s newest technological advancements and network with colleagues and potential customers.
