SSPC and ChemQuest Group Form Agreement
for On-Line Market Data
Pittsburgh--SSPC: The Society for Protective
Coatings has formed a strategic agreement with The
ChemQuest Group,
Inc. to offer on-line market information for the coatings industry.
Over 1200 titles of ChemQuest market data can now be accessed
through a portal on the SSPC web site.
The ChemQuest Group, Inc. has compiled over 1200 individual reports
on the U.S. coatings and adhesives markets. Coatings related reports
are available on End Use Segments, Raw Materials (i.e., generic coating/resin
type), and Technologies (i.e., electrocoat/e-coat, solvent borne, two-part
solvent systems, and water borne). These reports are sold as PDF downloads.
A complete listing of available PDFs can be accessed by
going directly to http://www.chemquest.com/sspc.html. Users can search
or browse the data and select titles for purchase. The purchase is
completed via a secure credit card transaction and the information
is immediately downloaded to the user's computer. Users can choose
information from nearly 60 end-use segments of the coatings market
with detail on volume, growth rate, and technology.
Terry Sowers, Director of Marketing at SSPC, said, "SSPC members
have been asking us for just this type of information for many years.
Many of our members believe that getting good market data has to be
expensive or difficult. Now members and visitors to the SSPC website
can purchase as little or as much market data as they need at a reasonable
cost. We are very pleased to be working with the knowledgeable folks
at ChemQuest to offer this service to our members in such a flexible
format."
"This agreement will not only advance the protective coatings
industry by expanding the SSPC offering, but also by providing a closer
relationship
between two important organizations with the best interests of the
industry in mind", said Dr. William E. Broxterman, Chief Executive
Officer of The ChemQuest Group, Inc. "SSPC is synonymous with
protective coatings, and ChemQuest is supporting SSPC in their mission
to serve the industry through information exchange."

Pennsylvania. The ChemQuest Group, Inc. is an international strategic
management
consulting firm specializing in the Coatings, Adhesives and Sealants,
