1 European Coil Coating Association 1

2 European Coil Coating Association ECCA is the Voice of the Coil Coating industry in Europe, representing more than 120 companies active in coil coating and the major suppliers to the industry. ECCA is dedicated to the promotion of the use of coil and/or sheet coated metal as the environmentally sound, the cost effective and the high quality method of finishing. Founded in 1967 Headquarters located in Brussels Association of corporate companies ( federation of national associations) 1,236 million m² and 191 kt paint (*) 83% Steel / 17% Aluminium(*) (*) 2013 ECCA statistics 2

3 MISSION Objectives Increasing the awareness of prepainted metal through targeted marketing programmes Promoting the benefits of prepainted metal through the provision of innovative solutions and with particular emphasis on environmental, cost, quality and design benefits Stimulating market, application, product and process development Setting quality performance standards and developing test methods Granting of Quality and Sustainability Labels for prepainted metal on the basis of the technical and sustainability requirements defined in the ECCA Premium Label manual and based on independent third party control Creating an industry network and forum for the development and exchange of ideas Representation of the Industry in its contacts with Public Officials, Public Authorities, other Trade Associations and Professional Bodies. 3

26 Conferences 26

27 ECCA conferences Two conferences per year ~ 180 participants Unique forums for the exchange of ideas and information among member companies and their customers Learning about latest technical developments Ample opportunities for face-to-face networking with the representatives of the international Coil Coating Industry Next conferences Köln (DE), May 2016 Brussels (BE), or November

28 New project: ECCA Premium ECCA Quality & Sustainability Label 28

29 Why an ECCA quality & sustainability label? Increasing amount of organic coated coils entering the market are not suitable for external building applications and do not fulfill EN and national standards requirements Negative influence on the image of coil coated materials in general Pressure on prepainted suppliers to follow this product downgrading to be competitive Detrimental for the long term product durability and coil coating business

30 Quality & Sustainability Label Contents A Quality & Sustainability Label, which ensures that the processes of manufacturing are done in accordance to well-defined standards Application for the Q-Label by written statement Application for the Q-Label by independent certification Both technical and sustainability criteria Both product and manufacturer specific requirements Independent inspection and certification

31 ECCA Premium Technical and sustainability requirements Product quality Manufacturing quality Product with minimum requested performance level according to EN10169 (steel) and EN1396 (Al) Substrate type (aluminium only) Metallic coating thickness (steel only) Organic coating thickness and tolerances Colour consistency and gloss tolerances Adhesion and bendability Corrosion and UV resistance, fire reaction certificate Manufacturer adopts a duly certified quality management system (ISO9001) and a safety management system (OHSAS18001 or similar) Manufacturer is able to ensure regular quality control for the following: Substrate type (aluminium only) Metallic coating thickness (steel only) Organic coating thickness and tolerances Colour consistency and gloss tolerances Adhesion and bendability Product sustainability Manufacturing Sustainability Product does not intentionally contain any Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) that are included in the Annex XIV of REACH Manufacturer adopts a duly certified environmental management system (ISO or EMAS) Manufacturer adopts a social responsibility policy (e.g. UN Global Compact) Manufacturer is committed to follow the European legislation and limits set for resources consumption (energy and water), VOC emissions and production of wastes
