Pitture e Vernici European Coatings magazine was founded in 1924 as a support tool for chemical formulators, involved in the production of paints, chemical products for the construction, adhesives and sealants and printing inks. Magazine provides an overview of the main raw materials for the formulation of coatings. In these 90 years life the magazine has reached an international circulation of 6.500 printed copies on paper and more than 56.000 on-line copies distributed to worldwide contacts. Reading the magazine you will find topics on new raw materials such as natural and synthetic resins, use of new green products for the formulation of eco-friendly coatings, various types of additives, natural and synthetic pigments and dyes, natural and modified fillers and extenders and a careful overview of all the new nanostructured, hybrid and ceramic matrix products.

In the magazine issues we will publish additional columns regarding: software and hardware processes, laboratory tests, plant and equipments for the production, containers, packaging of finished products and other components for the formulation. In addition to the production techniques, the magazine deals with the current news of this sector, with a particular focus on European legislations, REACH, CLP, VOC, Eco-label and more.
