Our work is all around you
Across the world, we work with customers and research institutions to find new ways to solve existing problems. From the engineers in our labs to our coating advisors onsite, our aim is to deliver coating solutions that add value to our customers’ businesses – by protecting assets for longer, reducing maintenance costs and increasing efficiency.
The industries we work in
Coatings are perhaps the most seen, but most overlooked product in the world. Almost all man-made structures and equipment are coated. Without these coatings, our structures and equipment would rust and crumble – and soon be unsafe to use. So, the next time you look at a house, hospital, boat, bridge or crane, think of the coating that protects it – and think of us.
Our global growth strategy
Our industry is growing rapidly, and we want to remain ahead of the curve as we expand both geographically and in terms of the customers and industries we serve.
We will achieve this by:
- Obtaining segment leadership
- Aiming to become sustainability leader within our focus areas
- Being a trusted partner to all our customers
