Save the week of September 9 to 12. EBRATS 2026, the largest surface treatment event in Latin America, comes to São Paulo Expo bringing together the industry's entire supply chain: input suppliers, equipment manufacturers, service providers and, of course, the people who make the buying decisions.

What EBRATS Is
Created in 1979, EBRATS (Brazilian Surface Treatment Meeting and Exhibition) is the only event in the country dedicated entirely to the sector. It is held every two years and brings together the latest technologies, products and services for electroplating, anodizing, painting, technical coatings and wastewater treatment.
In 2026, EBRATS takes place alongside FESQUA, the International Trade Show for Window Frames, Hardware and Components, which broadens the audience and reach of the event.

Why EBRATS 2026 Matters to Anyone Working in Surface Treatment
Anyone who makes buying decisions on inputs, equipment or services for electroplating knows that price and lead time do not tell the whole story. Documentation, traceability and a supplier's solidity carry as much weight as the amount on the invoice.
EBRATS is where that evaluation happens face to face. In four days, you can meet suppliers, compare proposals, see new launches and technologies up close, and build business relationships that catalogs and websites cannot replace.
For existing Boreto & Cardoso® customers, it is an opportunity to meet in person the team that serves them by phone and WhatsApp. For those who are not customers yet, it is the ideal moment for a first, no-obligation conversation.
Who You Will Meet at the Boreto & Cardoso® Booth
EBRATS brings together the entire surface treatment chain: electroplating, anodizing and aluminum treatment, powder and liquid coating, phosphating, blasting and wastewater treatment.
Walking the aisles are owners and managers of electroplating shops, process engineers and technicians, industrial buyers, environmental and quality consultants, as well as domestic and international buyers.
This is exactly the audience Boreto & Cardoso® has served for more than five decades, especially the jewelry, fashion jewelry (gold-plated jewelry) and costume jewelry electroplating hub, which our branch in Limeira, SP serves directly.
Boreto & Cardoso® at EBRATS 2026
After 54 years supplying industrial chemical inputs, being at EBRATS is a natural step for us. At the booth, visitors will find our complete portfolio of surface treatment inputs: hydrochloric, nitric and sulfuric acids, inorganic salts, oxidizers, alkalis and technical varnishes, among the products that support the processes on display at the show.
Every product ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for each lot, and you can see up close how that traceability works in practice. The sales team will be there throughout the show to answer questions about products, specifications and supply terms, and to share some of the company's history: from its founding in 1972, serving dye houses, to today, with more than 20 industrial sectors served and ISO 9001:2015 certification.
One point is worth making clear: Boreto & Cardoso® is a chemical distributor. We do not provide technical consulting, bath analysis or process development. What we offer is consistent, documented and traceable supply, which is often the missing link between a well-designed process and one that works every single day.
