Mercure Hotel Amsterdam Aan de Amstel, The Netherlands

About the Congress…

The seventh PRA Woodcoatings Congress will be held in Amsterdam on 12 - 13 October, 2010. This important international forum for the woodcoatings industry has been held every two years since 1998.

As in previous years, the 7th Woodcoatings Congress embraces all new technical developments in coatings and treatments for interior and exterior wood applications.

With many organisations incorporating environmental responsibility as a core element of their business strategies, the main theme of the Congress is "Reducing the Environmental Footprint". We welcome papers that address the environmental theme or describe innovative woodcoatings research. For guidance, please refer to the list of Suggested Topics.

Invitation to Speakers

Speakers are invited to submit papers to the congress organisers describing new developments in coatings for interior or exterior wood. The selection committee will give preference to the most innovative papers that have not been published previously.

For more information, important dates and details of how to submit your paper please see the Submission Details page.
