Outubro 2011
9
A broad program has been put together for the
congress, including plenary sessions and papers
presented in the Poster Section. In addition,
the program for Abrafati 2011 includes seve-
ral other activities and events, such as the 2nd
Abrafati-RadTech South America Seminar, where
innovation and trends in the radiation curing
technology and its applications will be introdu-
ced as discussed.
Another feature for this year’s edition is the
new approach of the Seminar on Environmen-
tal and Safety Issues in the Paint Industry, held
by Abrafati. In its 9th edition, the seminar will
specifically bring together some of the paint
industry’s experts on environment, safety and
health, providing an excellent opportunity for
discussing problems and solutions, learning
about current trends and outlining potential
strategies.
The program comprises several other key themes
for the paint value chain, such as occupatio-
nal health and hygiene, VOC (Volatile Organic
Compound) emissions and cases on the use of
sustainability as a profitability mechanism for
businesses.
