BASF Coatings hosts big league visitors at industrial coatings symposium

摘要

THE Industrial Coatings business unit chose Munich as the venue for an impressive presentation of its competence in coil and foil coatings.The city symbolizes big league performance in a number of areas.Not only is the Bavarian capital the home of the Bayern Munich soccer club,a successful participant in the European "Champions League,"but champions from the European construction industry also get together there every two years at the BAU international building exhibition.And the Industrial Coatings team outdid themselves in Munich,racking up successes in two areas at once.For instance,at the BAU booth it shared with BASF's Construction Network Team,the Industrial Coatings unit presented innovative paints and coatings.In addition,the team held a symposium entitled "Building with steel,aluminum and coil coatings,"an event attended not just by the European big league of the coil coatings industry,but even by a company representative who had flown in from Dubai for the happening.And what could be more fitting as a location for this event than the Allianz Arena in Munich,the home of the German record-holding Bayern Munich soccer club,a venue for the 2006 soccer World Cup and the site of exciting,top-class soccer matches.The stadium,which can hold 67,000 spectators,was opened in 2005,and is considered to be one of the meccas of the soccer world.
