Andy Stuart, Sales & Marketing Director, and Chris Winn, Group Chairman, Premier Coatings Ltd, give us a real feel for the atmosphere on the ground at ptc 2026: what the conversations have been like, what is front of mind for attendees, and how the mood of the industry is shaping up this year.
Andy spoke about the real-world stresses pipelines face day to day, and what good protection looks like.
He also unpacked what ‘long-term protection’ really means today. With pipelines expected to operate safely for decades – often under changing conditions – he explained how coating technologies like Protal are evolving to meet modern demands and why longevity is about more than just durability on paper.
The conversation took place live at ptc on Premier Coatings’ booth, C1.
