Topic: Finishing Today Announces Final Issue

BNP Media announced today that Finishing Today magazine would cease publishing effective after the July 2008 issue.
Finishing Today magazine provided coatings professionals with the latest industry and product news, including advances in finishing materials and equipment, and current trends in environmental, legislative and business issues that impact finishing operations.
Finishing Today covered metals, plastics and wood to ceramics, composites and high-tech substrates; from powder and liquid coatings to plating, film laminates and advanced technologies; from pretreatment to post-finishing.
“After exploring a full range of viable positionings, in a very crowded and competitive market, a very difficult decision was made to close down Finishing Today magazine”, stated John Schrei, Publishing Director of BNP Media.
