Last week, Americhem U kicked off its Winter/Spring season
with a class on “Designing Color Masterbatches,” taught by Americhem color and
synthetic fibers expert Roger Threadgill. It was nice to see Americhem U back
in session in Dalton, Georgia, where we’ve been teaching color classes to
industry professionals since 2011. During that time, we’ve taught 23 classes to
almost 700 industry professionals focusing on topics such as color trends,
color measurement, color tolerancing, weathering and polymeric additives.
This year, our classes are being held at a new location, the
Dalton Golf and Country Club. Participants enjoyed the nearly hour-long
presentation before networking with other professionals in the carpet and
synthetic turf industries during a buffet lunch. We have found that this “lunch
and learn” format helps educate while keeping up with the developments within
the industry.
We learn much through our interactions with those who attend
Americhem U classes. In fact, we survey participants at every class, and the
subsequent year of classes is determined by those that we survey. We teach the
classes quarterly in Dalton, semi-annually in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio (near
Cleveland) and, for customers of Americhem, we’ll even bring Americhem U to you
at your plant or office. We’ve also instituted a series of Americhem U webinars
that can be attended anywhere there’s a good internet connection.
Color is a complicated subject and it has a huge impact in
the manufacturing arena. We pride ourselves on helping you to understand
color’s many facets and how you can get color to help you sell your products,
no matter what industry you’re in.
