The International Thermal Spray Conference & Exposition (ITSC) has been jointly developed for over 20 years by DVS – German Welding Society (Germany) and ASM International (USA) and rotates between Europe, Asia, and North America. ITSC brings together the worldwide thermal spray community—end-users, researchers, manufacturers, and service providers—for three days of: – A high-level technical conference – A three-day international exposition – Practical and interactive formats such as the Industrial Forum, Young Professional Session, and Thermal Spray in a Nutshell (an introduction for newcomers) Thermal spraying and cladding technologies are key surface engineering processes used to enhance wear, corrosion, and heat resistance and are essential in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and energy. These technologies also play an increasing role in advanced manufacturing and future mobility solutions. Whether you are an expert or new to the field, ITSC is the place to learn, connect, and explore the latest developments in smart coatings and surface technologies. We look forward to welcoming you to Bangkok!
