2026 PCI 25: No. 6, Benjamin Moore & Co
Benjamin Moore’s 2025 revenue approached $2 billion, based on public remarks by Chairman and CEO Dan Calkins.
Benjamin Moore, a Berkshire Hathaway company, was founded in 1883 and remains one of the world’s leading paint, color and coatings brands. A manufacturer of premium-quality residential and commercial coatings, Benjamin Moore maintains a relentless commitment to innovation and sustainable manufacturing practices. The portfolio spans the brand’s flagship paint lines, including Aura®, Regal® Select, Ben®, Ultra Spec®, Advance®, Scuff-X®, Insl-X® and more. Benjamin Moore is renowned for its more than 3,500 unmatchable colors and its design tools and expertise for consumers and professionals alike. Benjamin Moore products are available exclusively from more than 8,500 locally owned and operated paint, decorating and hardware retailers throughout the United States, Canada and another 74 countries globally.
The publicly reported revenue figure does not provide a separate coatings-only breakout. Berkshire Hathaway identifies Benjamin Moore as a manufacturer of premium residential, commercial and industrial-maintenance coatings, while including the company within its broader group of building-products businesses, alongside Shaw, Johns Manville, Acme Brick and MiTek. That group generated approximately $13.8 billion in 2025 revenue, but includes businesses beyond Benjamin Moore and is not used as the basis for the company’s sales figure.

In May 2026, Reuters reported that Chairman and CEO Dan Calkins said Benjamin Moore generated nearly $2 billion in revenue during 2025. Benjamin Moore’s portfolio is centered on residential, commercial and industrial-maintenance coatings, including paints, stains, primers and specialty systems.
Benjamin Moore’s prior PCI 25 sales range was derived from broader Berkshire Hathaway reporting rather than a Benjamin Moore-specific revenue statement. The figures should not be read as a direct year-over-year comparison.
