Coatings Societies International


Coatings Societies International (CSI) is composed of the world's coatings technical associations:

  • Fédération d’Associations de Techniciens des Industries des Peintures,Vernis, Emaux et Encres d'Imprimerie de l’Europe Continentale (FATIPEC).
  • Federation of Societies for Coatings Technology (FSCT);
  • Japan Society of Colour Material (JSCM);
  • Oil & Colour Chemists' Association (OCCA);
  • Surface Coatings Association Australia (SCAA);
  • Surface Coating Association New Zealand (SCANZ); and,
  • Skandinaviska Lackteknikers Forbund (SLF).

The CSI meets regularly during the national conferences of its member organizations to pursue the following aims:

  • To ensure the international co-ordination of dates for scientific, technical and related events organized by its members;
  • To bring out the major directions of pure and applied research in the field of coatings technology;
  • To generate scientific and technical work liable to lead to world progress in these industries;
  • To support and ensure the publication of scientific, technical, and technico-economic work of interest to these industries; and,
  • Generally, to carry out or have carried out all useful action for the progress of these industries which one, or several members grouped together, could not undertake alone.

The next Official Meeting of CSI will take place on Wednesday 7th June 2006 in Queenstown, New Zealand.
