The European Coatings Show and the European Coatings Conference return to Nuremberg, Germany, from March 24-27.
February 26, 2025

Editor, Ink World Magazine
The leading exhibition for the international coating and paint industry, the European Coatings Show (ECS) plus Adhesives, Sealants, Construction Chemicals is held every two years at Messe Nuremberg in Nuremberg, Germany. In 2023, when the ECS returned after the COVID-19 pandemic, the ECS brought together 24,605 attendees and 1,017 exhibitors; this year’s ECS, which is organized by Vincentz Network, looks like it will break records for exhibitors and attendees alike. Matthias Janz, director trade shows for Vincentz Network GmbH & Co. KG, anticipates that this year’s show will be its largest ever. “The European Coatings Show 2025 will be the biggest show ever, with over 1,200 exhibitors showcasing their innovations,” Janz said. “Pre-registration figures indicate strong interest from industry professionals worldwide, reflecting the event’s significance in the coatings sector.” Janz noted that ECS 2025 will span eight exhibition halls, each dedicated to specialized segments of the industry. “Notably, six halls will focus exclusively on raw materials for coatings, printing inks, adhesives, and construction chemicals, along with related services,” he added. “Hall 4 will feature laboratory and production technology, testing and measuring equipment, application technology, and environmental and occupational safety. Hall 4A will combine all these segments, offering a comprehensive overview of the industry’s advancements.” Janz observed that sustainability remains a central theme at ECS 2025. “The conference will delve into topics such as sustainable practices, bio-based raw materials, and solvent-free formulations,” said Janz. “These discussions aim to address the increasing demand for environmentally friendly and high-performance coatings solutions.”
