1 European Coil Coating Association 1

2 European Coil Coating Association ECCAis the voice of the Coil Coating industry in Europe, representing around 130 companies active in coil coating and the major suppliers to the industry. ECCA is dedicated to the promotion of the use of coil and/or sheet coated metalas the environmentally sound, the cost effective and the high quality method of finishing. Founded in 1967 Headquarters located in Brussels Association of corporate companies ( federation of national associations) 1,250 million m² and 186 ktpaint (*) 81% Steel / 19% Aluminium(*) (*) 2011 ECCA statistics 2

3 MISSION Objectives Increasing the awareness of prepainted metal through targeted marketing programmes Promotingthe benefits of prepainted metal through the provision of innovative solutions and with particular emphasis on environmental, cost, quality and design benefits Stimulatingmarket, application, product and process development Setting quality performance standardsand developing test methods Creating an industry networkand forum for the development and exchange of ideas Representationof the Industry in its contacts with Public Officials, Public Authorities, other Trade Associations and Professional Bodies. 3

13 A free resource to educate in coil coating 9 modules (soon 10), each with their own exam Once registered: Select a course Work through the modules Complete the exams Download certificate of progress Keep coming back as a reference The ECCA academy is an interesting and exciting way to learn more about coil coating.it has been a pleasure for me to work through the exams of the ECCA academy. It gives a very good overview of the coil coating process. Christian Vree, Surface Technology Engineer Salzgitter Mannesmann Forschung GmbH 13

27 Conferences 27

28 ECCA conferences Two conferences per year ~ 180 participants Unique forums for the exchange of ideas and information among member companies Learning about latest technical developments Ample opportunities for face-to-face networking with the representatives of the international Coil Coating Industry Nextconferences Kosice (Slovakia), 3-4 June 2013 Brussels, November

29 New project: ECCA QualityLabel 29

30 Why an ECCA quality label? Increasing amount of organic coated coils entering the market are not suitable for external building applications and do not fulfill EN and national standards requirements Negative influence on the image of coil coated materials in general Pressure on prepaintedsuppliers to follow this product downgrading to be competitive Detrimental for the long term product durability and coil coating business

31 Quality Label Contents A Quality Label, which ensures that the processes of manufacturing are done in accordance to well-defined standards Application for the Q-Label by written statement Application for the Q-Label by independent certification Both technical and sustainability criteria Both product and manufacturer specific requirements Independent inspection and certification
