2002 Cardolite M. T. Harvey Award Winner – Eric Van Nevel
Eric Van Nevel’s efforts since 1986 as the head of Cardolite’s ex Americas sales have established cashew based, phenalkamine epoxy curing agents as the standard for low temperature, quick cure in the marine and protective coatings industry outside North America. From a base of virtually zero, current sales of cashew based epoxy products outside the Americas are many millions of dollars and pounds. The business now eclipses the American business and is recognized as a mainstream technology in epoxy coatings.
