The Canadian Paint and Coatings Association’s (CPCA) annual Canadian Coatings Conference is the leading source for engaging with representatives of companies in all sectors: manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and allied industry groups. The conference’s business sessions will address the economic state of the industry in Canada and globally, new innovation and sustainability advancements, and regulatory developments impacting the Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants, and Elastomers (CASE) industry in Canada.
CPCA is pleased to announce this year’s conference will be held at the William Gray Hotel in the heart of Old Montréal where guests will be surrounded by the historic charm and the best Montréal has to offer in culinary delights.
As CPCA prepares its roster of speakers this year, president and CEO, Gary LeRoux issues a call to the industry: “A ‘Whole of Industry’ approach is now needed as we look ahead to the regulatory developments anticipated for 2024. The Canadian Coatings Conference provides those working in the CASE industry with the information needed to not only navigate the Canadian regulatory landscape but sustain business success in a highly regulated sector.”
CPCA’s chair of the board of directors, Darrin Noble, president and COO, Cloverdale Paint, added, “By definition, everything the association does benefits the entire industry, not just the membership, and the hope is that more in the industry or adjacent industries become members going forward.” The Canadian Coatings Conference offers an elevated experience and networking opportunities that yield long-lasting business relationships.
The conference will begin with the CPCA’s board of directors meeting, followed by a welcome reception for all guests in the evening. There will be plenary sessions the following day, capped with CPCA’s Annual Chair Awards Dinner where attendees enjoy a three-course table d’hôte dinner among colleagues and friends.
Registration for the conference will open on January 1, 2024.
