The Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS) has announced that it has received sponsorship from five major automotive refinish brands for its Repairer Driven Education (RDE) program at the 2012 SEMA Show. Along with PPG, BASF, DuPont Performance Coatings, Sherwin-Williams and AkzoNobel, many other industry-related companies, organizations and exhibitors have shown their support for the event.
"We have been extremely proud to work with SCRS, sponsoring what we consider to be one of the most relevant and inspiring education forums available to the industry," said Domenic Brusco, senior manager, PPG MVP Business Solutions & Industry Relations. "We are proud to say that PPG customers benefit not only from having the right coatings technology to fit their specific requirements, but that they can also expect a level of service and support that would be expected of a world leader. We believe that supporting SCRS’ RDE program at the highest possible level further amplifies the program and helps us to bring innovation to the surface."
Added SCRS Chairman Aaron Clark, "It has been a very gratifying experience to watch the industry support for our programs grow so much over the past several years. As a repairer, I am always excited to attend our event because I have never failed to bring home information that helps my business. As part of the hosting organization, I’ve never been so humbled by the show of support we have experienced from these companies and all our attendees who have returned year after year. All of us at SCRS are deeply appreciative of that support from our membership."
