Protective coatings serve as a barrier between materials and their environment. Even a small holiday, scratch, chip, or coating defect can become an entry point for moisture and contaminants.

⚠️ Over time, corrosion may spread beneath the coating, affecting areas much larger than the original defect.

Proper surface preparation, application, inspection, and maintenance all play an important role in maximizing coating performance and asset life.

Sometimes the smallest vulnerabilities create the biggest risks.

The 4th AMPP Italy Conference + Expo 2026 concluded today in Genoa after three days of technical exchange, professional collaboration, and industry engagement.

The final day featured technical sessions focused on hydrogen service, sour corrosion, reinforced concrete durability, corrosion-resistant alloys and welding, and cathodic protection. Attendees explored topics ranging from pipeline integrity and offshore structures to advanced materials, predictive corrosion modeling, and strategies for extending the service life of critical infrastructure.

The exhibition hall remained active through the closing hours, providing opportunities for attendees to connect with exhibitors, researchers, asset owners, contractors, and solution providers before gathering for the Farewell Cocktail and closing remarks.

Thank you to the AMPP Italy Chapter, sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, media partners, volunteers, and attendees whose contributions helped make this event a success.

Arrivederci, Genoa, and thank you for hosting an outstanding event. 👏👏👏
