Valspar Automotive has opened a new Business & Technical Centre in Lelystad. Here we offer car refinishers a company-wide range of training courses at this centre; from technical and colour training courses to courses on sales, marketing and organisation. Users of Valspar brand Octoral can use the new centre’s modern facilities.

About 200 suppliers and employees attended the spectacular opening of the Business & Technical Centre (BTC). The official opening was in the good hands of Carl Wierks, Vice President Global Automotive, who directed a colourful fireworks display. All those who attended were then given a tour of the new building. At the heart of the BTC is a state-of-the-art spraying booth that meets all technical and sustainability requirements. The spraying booth is surrounded by several classrooms for practical and theoretical training sessions. The colourful furnishing and comfortable layout will serve as an inspiration for the students coming here from dozens of countries for their training. The BTC is equipped with every imaginable multimedia, communication and presentation tool.
