For hundreds of years, the global paint and coatings industry has played a key role in driving new product innovations that are used to beautify, protect and extend the useful life of the world around us — from infrastructure and the built environment, to everyday consumer goods.
Not only do coatings add aesthetic appeal to a finish, but they have long served as a highly durable, protective barrier against degradation from corrosion, abrasion, extreme temperatures, chemicals and other harsh conditions. In addition, many coatings support sustainability by maximizing energy efficiency, reducing landfill waste and curbing CO2 emissions.
