The Wood Coatings Congress has established itself as the international reference platform for scientific and technical exchange in the field of wood coatings. Over the course of two intensive days in Amsterdam, the congress will bring together stakeholders from across the value chain'-'from resin and additive producers to leading research institutes, coating manufacturers, and end-use industries'-'to discuss the latest advances in formulations, application processes, and sustainable solutions.
At the same time, the congress will reflect the sector's growing attention to functionality and performance. Current research highlights include advances in fire retardancy, UV screening, antifungal protection, and innovative additives aimed at blocking stains and improving adhesion on challenging substrates. Digitalisation and data-driven approaches are also becoming increasingly relevant, as high-throughput testing, accelerated weathering models, and predictive simulations open new avenues for service life prediction and faster innovation cycles. With the integration of nanostructured materials and bio-inspired additives, the field is moving towards coatings that are not only protective, but multifunctional'-'combining durability, surface enhancement, and environmental responsibility in one system.
