At the beginning of last December, the technical team of SAGOLA, had the opportunity to visit to the central facilities that BASF has in Guadalajara.

The purpose of this trip was to participate in several training sessions, focus on both BASF internal technicians (from their CV line and their BCS) and technicians from their main Distributors in the National market.

The training was very specific, focused on painting systems with its CV line for commercial and industrial vehiclespainting.

Sagola provided an important training course covering both the practical and theoretical aspectson the advantages, uses and performances of the different industrial spray systems (aerographic,airless and mixed).

Also,we had the opportunity to look for the best combinations and equipment settings for the application of the main CV products of BASF. All the technicians in both sessions had the opportunity to apply primers, basecoats and single stage with the fastest equipment and the best performance in each case.

The SAGOLA 4100 Xtreme Pressure, was tested with several versions of the hybrid aircups (Supervit and EPA), the very high-speedones (777 and 765) and the HVLP of maximum performance.

These kinds of actions reinforce even more, the great collaboration that, for decades now, BASF and SAGOLA have also maintained in their different industrial divisions. We want to show BASF team gratitude for counting on Sagola for this special training and for the implication, interest and professionalism shown during those days, both by the organizing team (Rocío, Sergio and Sebastián) and by all the technicians. A very successful action that we are willing to repeat in the near future.

As an environment-conscious company, Sagola will start a new action that reduces the quantity of paper included in the product packaging.

Instead of the instruction booklet, Sagola products will include a leaflet that will explain to the user how to get the instruction manual trough computer support.

After scanning the QR code on the leaflet, the user will be directed to Sagola URL where the manuals and exploded view drawings of each product can be found searching by code or word. Another way to get them is directly visiting http://sagola.com/en/manuals-explodes

Manuals will not only be downloaded, but also online viewed to make it easier to find them anywhere and anytime and being a way of minimizing the negative impact to the environment.

Last November from 20 to 22nd , it took place a training course in the facilities of our distributor, Roberlo do Brasil. It was focus on Sagola whole range of Industrial equipment for Industrial line, in order to show both the low pressure pneumatic equipment -Aerographic- and the high pressure pneumatic equipment -Mixed and Airless-, as well as the different spray guns and accessories.

Several South America’s Roberlo subsidiaries such as Roberlo do Brasil, Roberlo Argentina and Roberlo Peru attend to the training seminar. It was also attended by Renpar S.A. (Paraguay), and some Brazilian dealers.

Sagola wants to sincerely thank the interest and enthusiasm shown by all attendees in this training action and special thanks to Albert Juher (Roberlo and Disolac Director for USA and Latin America), Marco Pargas (Roberlo do Brasil Director), Diego Lunar (Roberlo Argentina Director) and Angel Magín (Disolac Technician Manager).

Sagola's technical team has travelled to Thailand and Malaysia this month to provide Axalta's technical staff and sales teama training course. 

The training course has been organized in two parts; one of them more theoretical for a better knowledge of the products of the Sagola Refinish Catalogue and to show the last novelties and another part, a practical training in which they had the chance to test some products for different applications. 

We would like to thank to both Axalta Thailand and Malaysia for its warm welcome and the interest shown in these training actions.

Last October, it was a great pleasure for Sagola to show the whole range of Sagola spray guns to the Cesvi Mexico technical staff.

The first part of the training included a review of the whole range of products and the importance of the whole painting process:

• Surface preparation
• Air quality and compressed air systems.
• Suitable painting equipment for each painting step.

The second part of the training was focused on test different Sagola products so the technicians will familiarize with them.

The purpose of this training seminar is to share the knowledge with the automotive refinish market to develop the level of specialization among professional painters in Mexico.

Thank you to the Cesvi Mexico team for the wonderful enthusiasm and support along the training seminar.

Last week, Sagola visited the facilities of newest products for automotive sector.

After the launch of the 4600 Xtreme in the last quarter of the year, Sagola has made an in-depth renewal of the refinish range of products throughout this 2017.

Undoubtedly, the great novelty of these last months is the 3300 GTO, a new and versatile spray gun takes up into the Sagola Refinish Catalogue in a version for finishes; 3300 GTO CAR, ideal for clearcoats, waterborne and single stage paints and another version for top range primers (HS and express drying), the 3300 GTO. Both versions are presented with new forged body, in different high transfer nozzles.

There were also new products such as the Classic Pro XD, an excellent value for money spray gun for primers that provides both aesthetic and functional improvements (new EPA and HVLP nozzles) compared to its predecessor Classic Pro. The new 475 Xtech, is a new and improved version of the historic Premium 475 retouching gun, with a more modern aesthetic and an external air regulator as standard.

In addition to the product presentation, the international Sagola team that attended this conference, takes the change to know the operation of Cesvi Spain to make easier the relationship with Cesvi in other countries.

SAGOLA México Sagola México has started a collaboration project with Cesvi Mexico; they will test Sagola painting equipment with products from different paint manufacturers, for a later validation. Last September the 7th , Sagola has provided Cesvi with the most suitable products for refinish.

Sagola national sales team met this week in our headquarters in Vitoria to pick their new vehicles; hybrid Toyota cars.

Sagola, following its commitment to sustainability and respect for the environment, has chosen hybrid vehicles to equip national sales team. Cars that reduce the emissions to atmosphere and allow us to be closer to our customers in a more environmentally friendly way.

Earlier this month a large group of Airbrush painters and custom artists were welcomed at Sagola headquarters, to know the process of manufacture of our painting equipment.

They made a tour to our facilities and visited the warehouse and manufacturing and quality areas where they listened to explanation from the department heads. 

It was a very interesting experience that ended with a presentation of some new products in Sagola training center.

Special thanks for the nice collection of art they gave to us for our showroom and above all for their passion and love for what they do.
