The annual ‘Dörken Days’ once again took place at Frankfurt am Main, Germany, on 28th – 29th November 2019, and saw over 180 experts receive a comprehensive overview of current trends and challenges in corrosion protection.
Once a year Dörken MKS invites customers, market partners and corrosion experts from throughout the value chain to ‘Dörken Days’ and interest was once again great at this year’s event – the 9th to be held.
