NORCROSS, Ga. — Akzo Nobel will be the host of the OE Forum on Nov. 3 at the International Autobody Congress and Exposition NACE convention in Las Vegas.

Automotive OEM representatives from Ford, GM, DaimlerChrysler, Honda, Hyundai and Toyota will discuss repair information, vehicle design considerations, computers and electronic systems, hybrid technologies, safety features, new equipment and materials.
“This forum is important because of the complexity of today’s vehicles. Akzo Nobel is already working with Automotive OEM on metals, plastics and other items.
