SAMFA Metal Coatings Technical Guide - Now under Construction
SAMFA continues to make progress with our recently launched Metal Coatings Guide project. We're producing a hybrid publication, free on line as a flip book or PDF download and at a reasonable price for a glossy printed version.
Like its predecessors, it is designed to be useful to anyone who needs up-to-date information about metal coating technologies and the availability of products and services. Let's get behind this project and drive its success!

The target readership includes consultants, design engineers, trainees, producers of metal products that require coating as well as providers of these finishes. Years after the first volumes were distributed (2008 and 2011), this work continues to be in use, proving its worth as an ideal channel to strengthen your marketing programme
The title has been changed to refer to Metal Coatings as this more closely reflects the focus of the greater part of the subject material. Additional information is regularly being made available in dedicated promotional mailers and on line.

Online Electroplating Training Course
With the advantage of informative feedback from trainees and employers who benefited from our conventional training sessions over the years, we were able to redesign our content very effectively for presentation in an online format.
Don't miss the opportunity to join the next online group. You may register your interest now at this link and we will contact you as soon as the date has been fixed.
Our third set of presentations for 2023 ends on November 3. A new series will be scheduled early in 2024.
Employers may offer the trainees the required facilities at the workplace. If employers prefer, trainees who have a suitable set up may work from home. SAMFA is able to arrange to aquire rental laptop machines at reasonable rates for the duration of the course.
Provided that trainees have access to a tablet or a notebook/laptop and a broadband connection they will be able to connect to the online video portal via a password protected dedicated link.
SAMFA has demonstrated that the association is up for a challenge and able to move with the times. We have developed something that is affordable and has proven to be more enjoyable and less stressful for trainees.
We have seen that our online Electroplating Basics course has met with approval from the industry at many levels. Maintaining the financial viability of training programmes while lowering the price to below the rate of the previous offering is surely a win-win outcome. It enables us to offer this important training despite the underlying costs continuing to escalate. Visit the Electroplating Training info page for more.
We showcase job opportunities in the electroplating industry as well as other metal coating sectors including anodising and powder coating. Let us advertise your requirements.
