Joost Broeders

Technical Director

In my role as Technical Director, the R&D and KAM departments fall under my responsibility. In the R&D department, the focus is on increasing biobased and eliminating hazardous substances in our coatings and paints. In addition to working on this independently as a company, we also actively seek collaborations within the chain, in projects with institutes and various raw material suppliers who also have sustainable ambitions.

As far as KAM is concerned, it mainly concerns safeguarding our (environmental) permits and ISO certifications and everything related to this.

In addition, as a board member, I have a shared responsibility for sustainability. My role here is mainly to represent Baril externally and to communicate our ambitions. Setting up projects together with/with clients, networking in the field of corporate social responsibility at, for example, MVO NL, Ware Winst Brabant, Economy for the Common Good, but also the trade association CEPE (EU) and the VVVF.

I also provide support for technical questions and challenges from partners and customers.
