As the paint and coatings industry convened in New Orleans for International Coatings Expo (ICE) 2006, it did so in a time of major change within the industry as well as the Federation of Societies for Coatings Technology (FSCT).
To meet the challenges of the future, the FSCT has implemented a new organizational structure, in which members directly elect FSCT board members. In addition, the FSCT developed FutureCoat!, a comprehensive annual technical conference that focused on the innovative methodologies and applications shaping the future of the coatings industry.
"We've changed as an organization, as an industry and as a global community," said Dr. Rose Ryntz, FSCT president and executive director for materials engineering and processing at Collins & Aikman.
When the FSCT decided that it would continue to hold its International Coatings Expo (ICE) 2006 in New Orleans in spite of the damage wrought by Hurricane Katrina, there was some legitimate concern that the program would suffer.
