DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, April 3, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — This year marks the 30th edition of the Middle East Coatings Show in Dubai, from 16-18 April 2024 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

For the past three decades, the Middle East Coatings Show has played a pivotal role in connecting professionals within the coatings industry in the MENA region. The event has become the leading gathering for the growing sector, with more than 350 exhibiting brands from 24 countries presenting their products and innovations covering the entire range of the coatings industry, from raw materials to equipment manufacturers.

Other prominent manufacturers in the region are Nippon Paint India and AkzoNobel, who are both capitalising on the upsurge in construction activities. Sharad Malhotra, President of Automotive Refinishes and Wood Coatings at Nippon Paint India, said, “Increased construction activities across the UAE and neighbouring countries are fuelling demand for high-quality paints and coatings.”
