What started as a small business in Salt Lake City, Utah, has now evolved into a global network of state-of-the-art coating facilities equipped with cutting-edge technology and a team of dedicated engineers. Our headquarters are now in Raleigh, North Carolina, with a global presence worldwide, including China, Vietnam, and Mexico. Our journey has been marked and an unwavering dedication to exceeding clients' expectations and pushing the limits of what is possible with protective coatings.
