27.11.2023 DÖRKEN Days 2023: Fascinating topics and valuable contacts

This year's DÖRKEN Days took place in Essen on 23 November. The traditional event has been a staple in the event calendar for over ten years. It is a meeting point for customers, market partners and experts along the entire value chain.

Christos Tselebidis, Vice President Sales Industrial Coatings at DÖRKEN Coatings, welcomed the participants to the ATLANTIC Congress Hotel Essen and provided an overview of what's new at DÖRKEN and on the global market. Afterwards, Christian Rabe & Markus Nowak from the Product Engineering team gave a follow-up to last year's event.

Throughout the day, DÖRKEN employees provided interesting insights into current topics. For example, they talked about the influence of the planned PFAS ban on product development, the DELTA-PROTEKT® TC 502 GZ topcoat, which was presented in 2023, and room-temperature curing corrosion protection solutions. But business partners also had the opportunity to share their experiences. Beatrice Occhionero from A. AGRATI S. p. A. gave a presentation entitled "Enhancing of Testing Insights: A Deep Dive into massive Data Analysis". Geoffrey Bruno from Enovasense reported on the topic of coating thickness measurement.

Marvin Urban's talk on "Digital Transformation" was the last presentation of the day. Urban is one of two managing directors of DÖRKEN Digital Ventures GmbH, which is tackling the market challenges of the future.

Christos Tselebidis had the closing words of the eventful day. Afterwards, all participants went on to dinner together. Not only there, but also during the day between the presentations, the participants were able to socialise and engage in discussions.

"We are delighted that we were able to welcome numerous partners of DÖRKEN live on site again this year - and in even greater numbers than usual," says Christos Tselebidis. "We would like to express our gratitude for the trust placed in us and the exciting input we received from personal discussions. I'm already looking forward to next year!"
