This year's Papiertechnische Stiftung (PTS) Germany Coating Symposium is the 25th annivesary of the event. The BMW-Welt as a particularly attractive venue and a new concept will make the event, to be held September 14-17, 2011 even more appealing to participants and exhibitors.

The first two conference days (September 14-15) are dedicated to recent results from research and technology and their implementation.

"Innovations in coating technology will take centre stage in these sessions – from raw materials to printing. Renowned experts from science and industry will present interesting approaches to the design of new products, efficient use of resources and improvements in manufacturing processes and product quality," explains Dr.-Ing. Reinhard Sangl, event director.

Lectures on the first conference day will be presented at the Holiday Inn hotel in Munich. After the lectures, attendees will be transferred to the BMW Welt for the traditional "Symposium Party" in the exhibition area.

The third day includes a variety of presentations on markets and strategy. The day concludes with ceremonies marking the 60th anniversary of PTS. The keynote speaker will be Professor Hans-Juergen Papier, former president of the German Federal Constitutional Court.

On Saturday, September 17,  delegates will be able to witness how innovations are pushed forward at the VESTRA pilot coater of PTS. 

The revised conference format also includes new ticket offers: While fees for the complete event have remained unchanged at 1,410 €, the all-inclusive ticket offers a special plus – it is now transferable. Employees belonging to the same company location can take turns attending at the various conference days. The ticket for the first two days focusing on research, technology and operations costs 1,180 €. Anyone wishing to take part in the sessions on strategic issues and the ceremonial act on day three only can book this day separately for 790 €.
