THE
SEMINAR THE
VENUE The Seminar will be based in Bilbao. The Los Tamarises Hotel is in the lively coastal residential area of Getxo and just across the road from Eraega beach. It is within a few minutes of Bilbao Sondika airport and fifteen minutes from Bilbao city centre. This will be our centre for overnight accommodation and meals and for the presentation of the technical papers. The hotel is equipped with all of the facilities which you have come to expect. Bilbao is a vibrant industrial city in Northern Spain right on the coast, but not far from the magnificent Northern Pyrenees and the Cantabrian mountains. Home to the famous Bizkaia transporter bridge, it is also a centre for culture and art. Bilbao is served by an airport and a port. Frequent flights from the UK are available along with a ferry service from Portsmouth. The Fagor Electrodom�sticos enamelling plant is acknowledged to be one the most state of the art plants in Europe and is certainly one of the cleanest and tidiest that you will ever see. This company pioneered the use of powder on a large scale when the rest of the industry was still thinking about it. All of the processes you would expect in modern domestic appliance enamelling plant are there. If you want to see domestic appliance enamelling as it should be done, then this visit is an essential once in a lifetime chance. Don�t miss it! We have said it before, but the advantages of going with other enamellers can never be underestimated - all of those other pairs of eyes! THE
SUBJECT If you are interested in enamels or enamelling, then you should be there! This seminar is aimed at finding out the best ways to do it. We will encompass the usual combination of practice, theory and discussion. With a background of a visit to Fagor Electrodom�sticos what better way of doing it. And, of course don�t forget the opportunity of liaison offered during these seminars is one of the best ways to ensure the future of our very specialised industry. As usual, our seminar offers some unique opportunities in a value for money package. It will cost you considerably less than any other comparable form of seminar. The Institute of Vitreous Enamellers runs these seminars for the benefit of its members, not to make a large profit. The registration fee includes all accommodation costs and meals. The package will interest managers, technicians and practical personnel. As a supplier of raw materials or frits, you will have a chance to find out what your customers really want. As a customer, who actually does the enamelling, you will have a chance to see and discover the latest technology and practice. The technical papers have a range of subjects which will interest all enamellers. A special feature is a full forum on the future - where will we go next? We have allowed plenty of time for this, to enable discussions to be completed. Delegates will be registering during the Sunday evening to minimise the loss of time of your critical personnel. This will limit the duration of the Seminar to two full weekdays. The visit to the enamelling plant of Fagor Electrodom�sticos is a once in a lifetime opportunity to view the very peak of best practice in vitreous enamelling. We are most grateful to Fagor Electrodom�sticos for opening their doors to us and we urge you to take this rare opportunity to visit this plant and to enjoy the visit with your colleagues and other with like-minded enamellers. The benefits of this are well proven over years of our seminars - better thirty pairs of eyes than just yours! If you have been to one of our Seminars before, then you will know that we have planned ample time for formal and informal discussions. We are well aware of the importance of informal discussion time and we ensure that there is plenty of time available. These Annual Technical Seminars have become the highlight of the information package provided by The Institute of Vitreous Enamellers. So, if you want to update your knowledge and to be really involved with the continuing future of vitreous enamelling, then YOU need to be there FORMAT OF THE SEMINARVENUE The Seminar Hotel, Los Tamarises, was built in 1934
