I am very excited to have the first North American Surcar meeting in Detroit. Having been in the paint finishing business for forty years, I have come to understand that our industry problems are not proprietary. At this Congress, OEMs and suppliers will collaborate on innovations and share their experiences.
We, at SURCAR, are enthusiastic and proud to present our 1st Event in NORTH AMERICA and especially in DETROIT. International experts from the Paint Finishing field, major OEMs and Suppliers will present the latest technological innovations assuring that our Industry meets the challenges of our rapidly changing World. We look forward to welcoming all current and future Members of our SURCAR Community.

Surcar Shanghai 2017
SURCAR Created for the first time in 1964 in Cannes (France), SURCAR Congress has become the most successful Biennial meeting for both International Automotive OEMs and Main Suppliers of Products and Equipment for Car Body Finishing. In April 2014, SURCAR Asia Congress was officially launched and took place in Shanghai, China. Following its successful events in Europe and in Asia, SURCAR is organizing its first North American Congress in Detroit (MI, USA) on June 13-14, 2018. Led by a prestigious Technical committee and taking place at the legendary Motor City, SURCAR North American Congress is positioned to become the pre-eminent forum to exchange ideas, learn from real Industrial experience and participate in essential debates on the future of our Industry. The SURCAR Community will now be present in three of the World’s main Auto Producing centers.
