AkzoNobel/Chemcraft Head to 2021 AWFS Fair

Attendees at the AWFS Fair, July 20-23, in Las Vegas, will have the ear of the top technical professionals from AkzoNobel and Chemcraft and the opportunity to have their questions answered in person, one-on-one.

“Our team is eager to be reunited with customers with one-on-one personal attention and to get back to seeing and helping customers in person,” said Ron Cooper, North America market segment manager-Chemcraft Brand & Furniture at AkzoNobel Coatings. “Virtual is one thing, but nothing beats a real handshake and face to face conversation. It’s all about chemistry; chemistry that creates outstanding products and chemistry that establishes lasting personal relationships with distributors, OEMs and woodworking professionals.”

Experts will be accessible to all, ready to talk through product applications, challenges, and processes, and to learn about and solve problems.

“At any given time, the expertise of the team staffing the booth will reflect upwards of 200 years of combined industry experience,” says Cayce Hewlett, business development manager of Chemcraft North America, giving attendees the opportunity to talk over their challenges with the best minds in the wood coatings industry.
