International Paint Highlighted its Intershield®300 Anticorrosive Primer at Posidonia 2012

This year's Posidonia exhibition was the largest ever, and one in which International Paint was proud to participate.

The biennial gathering, held 4-8th June in Athens, attracted almost 19,000 visitors and 1,870 exhibitors from 92 countries, making it an ideal platform to showcase its innovative coatings, including the renowned Intersmooth®SPC, Interswift® and Interspeed® brands, offering customers a complete choice of antifouling technology and performance.

The event was also an opportunity to highlight Intershield®300, the anticorrosive universal primer which has amassed a 12,000 vessel track record and is the only product with 15 years proven in service performance on cargo oil tanks and seawater ballast tanks. International Paint also presented its industry leading cargo hold range, featuring Intershield®803Plus, designed to withstand the impacts of modern high speed belt conveyors, frequently used to load bulk carriers. Its stand was staffed by representatives from Greece, Korea, China, Romania, Cyprus, Turkey and the UK, who welcomed over 600 visitors.

In addition to the business opportunities provided by the event, International also enjoyed the networking and recreational aspects, achieving second place in the five-a-side Shipsoccer tournament, organised by Posidonia Exhibitions S.A and Naftiliaki Filathliki Enosis. The tournament, which attracted over 300 spectators, was won by Diamantis Pateras Maritime. International Paint is grateful for visitors' interest in its products and looks forward to Posidonia 2014.
