December CE Lunch Meeting - Pensacola

Paint 201 | High Performance Coatings for Commercial Spaces

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Commercial and light industrial projects typically require high-performance coating solutions to provide optimal performance against abrasion, chemicals, moisture and other harsh conditions common to these types of buildings. Technological advancements have created high-performance coatings that not only provide the aesthetics and durability your owners demand – there are also a variety of formulations that can help contribute towards green building certifications.

This course provides solutions to the most prevalent challenges found in busy commercial spaces so that you can specify the coatings best suited to the project type and conditions. We will also explore innovative coating technologies that combine performance benefits that meet the demands of commercial spaces as well as emit lower VOCs

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

• Discuss the conditions that drive coating selection as well as the additional factors that influence coating specifications for commercial and light industrial applications in the green building environment.
• Determine optimum coating systems for different types of substrates, project type and aesthetic requirements.
• Learn about innovative coating technologies that combine performance benefits with lower VOCs than traditional high-performance coatings.
• Review how high-performance coatings can contribute towards green building certifications.
