ABOUT US

PAINTINDIA, the premier trade show for the paints, coatings and allied industries is the world’s third largest show, and has been the fastest growing event globally in this space. It has been in existence for over 30 years now and has the genesis and same lineage as the Journal of the same name, which has been serving the industry for over 70 years now. For three days, the exhibition offers the opportunity to meet new and existing customers from the region; gather insight on the latest technologies available in the market; and have meaningful, face-to-face business interactions. The event provides the perfect environment for the entire spectrum of the coatings industry to do business, from raw material suppliers to equipment manufacturers, to distributors and technical specialists like formulators. Recently, it has been fortified and strengthened globally with the joint ownership between the erstwhile owners and the owners of the European Coatings Show.

The exhibition covers the fields of paints, coatings, and also represents the interests of the Printing Inks, Construction Chemicals and Adhesives-Sealants segments from a sourcing and manufacturing viewpoint. Mirroring the latest developments within the coatings industry, it is fortified with the technical Coatings Congress, Satellite Conferences and Panel Discussions with specific focus areas and themes.

The event provides the perfect meeting point for the entire spectrum of the coatings industry to meet, network and do business, from Owners, Formulators, Technical managers, Purchase managers, process engineers, quality managers, raw material suppliers, equipment manufacturers, distributors and others.

Indian Paint Industry

The Indian Paint Industry is today worth over INR 62,000 crores (USD 8 billion), and is the fastest-growing major paint economy the world over, with a consistent double-digit growth over the last 2 decades. It has over 3,000 paint manufacturers, with nearly all global majors present in the country. It has a near-75% share of architectural paints and a 25% share of industrial paints, with an equitable fast-paced growth across all segments, from Architectural to Powder, from Automotive to Coil, from High-Performance to General Industrial, from Refinish to Wood, and from Packaging to Plastic.

Besides the core Paint/Coatings segment, Paint India also represents the interests of the Printing Inks, Construction Chemicals and Adhesives-Sealants segments from a sourcing and manufacturing viewpoint, since the raw materials, production equipment and supply channels have a significant overlap, and none of these segments have dedicated world-class events for themselves. Similarly, large and important industry segments like Pigments, Resins, Plastic Master batches and Composites also find valuable sourcing avenues at the show, extending the benefits and customer engagement on offer.
