Series 8 - Visit Reports - Files

Date Range	1967 - 1988
Quantity	17 cm, 9 files
Provenance	Pigment Manufacturers of Australia Limited (PMA Ltd)
Description	Reports, notes, itineraries and other papers regarding visits made by general managers and senior staff of Pigment Manufacturers of Australia Limited who travelled overseas, and on occasion within Australia, to meet with other manufacturers to discuss and compare technical information and other matters. The items in this series appear to contain correspondence and preparatory documents leading up to overseas trips, as well as copies of reports and other paperwork resulting from these trips. Some of the reports in this series are duplicates of those in the more clearly structured visit report files which can be found in Series 9. Staff involved in these visits include Alan Barlee (in his role as a senior technical staff member, and later as General Manager), Hugh A. Grayson, D. R. Harris and Lance Rowley. Many trips included visits to ICI and BASF plants and offices in England and Germany, with other countries such as France, the United States and Japan included at various times. The papers in this series were originally housed in three large suspension files. These files were discarded and the contents of each divided into three parts during the archiving process. The provenance of Pigment Manufacturers of Australia Limited has been assigned to this series as it was not possible to determine a finer provenance attribution. This includes Imperial Chemical Industries of Australia and New Zealand Limited papers pre-dating the formation of PMA Ltd.
