IPCA has been at the forefront of organizing landmark events that unite and uplift the industry. Our Biennial Conferences serve as a premier platform for networking, learning, and knowledge exchange — hosted bi-annually across iconic locations such as Agra (2005), Kathmandu (2007), Jaipur (2009 & 2017), Bangkok (2011), Amritsar (2013), Goa (2015), Chandigarh (2019), Delhi (2021), Agra (2023), and Udaipur (2025).

IPCA actively represents India at major global coating exhibitions such as Bhutan, Nepal, Bangkok, Korea, Vietnam, China Coat, European Coating Show, Russian Coat Show, and TurkCoat—both as participants and hosts. These delegations strengthen international partnerships, enhance industry presence, and support engagement with the Government of India on key matters including MSME, GST, Lead-Free, and Green Coating initiatives.

The official Facebook page of the Indian Paint & Coating Association is a vibrant hub for member interaction and updates. It serves as a social space where members can engage, share ideas, and stay informed about the latest activities, events, and announcements from IPCA in real time.

Published quarterly, the IPCA Journal offers a snapshot of recent seminars, training programs, and industry events organized by IPCA. It is a printed and digital record of the Association’s knowledge-sharing initiatives and outreach efforts, designed to keep members connected and informed about IPCA’s dynamic engagements.

IPCA Emailers deliver engaging and informative updates on industry developments, upcoming events, policy changes, and association activities. They serve as a direct communication channel for sharing invitations, announcements, and post-event highlights with members.

As a founding member of the Paints and Coatings Skill Council, IPCA plays a crucial role in developing a skilled workforce for the industry. Established in October 2015 as a not-for-profit under Section 8 of The Companies Act, PCSC is supported by major industry bodies including IPA, ISSPA, and IPCA. The council aims to close skill gaps through standardized training modules, robust assessments, and strategic collaboration with industry stakeholders. In June 2022, PCSC was officially recognized by NCVET as the Awarding Body for the sector in India—marking a significant step toward structured skill development.

IPCA regularly organizes technical seminars, business-to-business meets, educational training sessions, and knowledge-sharing forums in collaboration with industry leaders and academic institutions. These events are held across the country to promote innovation, foster collaboration, and upgrade the technical competencies of professionals in the Paints & Coatings industry.
