The following is PCI’s annual ranking of the top 10 global paint and coatings manufacturers. The ranking is based on 2021 coatings sales. Sales of non-coating products are not included. Sales numbers for coatings companies in the United States and internationally were universally up compared to 2020, as companies bounced back from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
