Cloverdale Paint Inc, a privately-owned North-American paint and coatings manufacturer, announced upgrades to its Surrey, BC manufacturing plant and the establishment of a distribution facility and warehouse in North Surrey.

Cloverdale Paint's Surrey plant in Newton, has expanded its manufacturing capabilities by investing in automated, high speed paint processing which more than doubles its decorative paint production capability.  Along with the improvements to plant throughput, the automated batch-making system reduces the amount of time it takes to produce paint thus ensuring higher service levels and reduced inventory requirements.

With the additional investment in new manufacturing equipment the company moved its finished goods distribution and warehouse from the Surrey plant to a new 60,000-square-foot high-bay facility with increased stocking capacity, as well as a special area designed for the handling and storage of high-performance industrial coatings.

These investments in Cloverdale Paint's operations will allow the company to continue its market expansion and servicing of existing and new customers across Canada.
