REACH THE WORLD'S MOST VERSATILE AND DYNAMIC FINISHING MARKET

China is now the largest producer of powder coatings, largest makers of mobile phones, toys, digital cameras, microwaves, photocopier, DVD players, digital TV sets and a wide range of other electrical and electronic goods, and finally it is surpassing US in total car sales.

Recent innovations in curing technology, such as UV and near Infrared (NIR) are broadening market potential by opening new application areas, e.g. wood, plastics and papers. Superior technology in products and application usually implies more concern and awareness on green surface finishing, in meeting the latest environmental requirements. Undisputedly, there will be major changes in the formulation of most types of industrial coatings and finishing before the end of this decade.

Companies first must understand the impact of their products and manufacturing processes on current and future population and ecosystem. SFJ thus serves the purpose of bringing all the latest trends and innovations to the industry, alerting industrial players of the hottest issues in the field and giving insight to potential business opportunities. SFJ has a regular circulation of 10,000 copies and a total of 12,000 copies are distributed to the visitors at the prestigious SFCHINA series of exhibition, providing challenges and opportunities both for the Chinese and for global players seeking new market. SFJ's mission is to promote links between China and the rest of the World, which helps to grow your business and improve awareness of your brands across the key Chinese market.
