PROTECT
Protect what you make.
The products you manufacture are built to work hard. Their coatings should, too.
The Davis Industrial Coatings Division was formed in 1976 to meet the growing demand for the OEM market. Davis Industrial Coatings are made to protect manufactured products from the wear, weather, chemicals, abrasion, and everyday demands they face in the real world. From primers and enamels to urethanes, epoxies, and water-based systems, our industrial coatings are designed with performance in mind. Our specialty is custom formulating, made-to-order or prescription coatings to meet your individual production and application needs. We will create a coating tailored to your end use requirements.
Because when you've put time, materials, and craftsmanship into making something right, the coating should help keep it that way.
Built to protect. Made to perform.
MORE THAN A COATING
Because one solution doesn’t fit every application.
Every manufacturer has different equipment, production methods, application processes, and performance requirements. That's why Davis takes a practical, flexible approach to industrial coatings. Our Sales, Research & Development, and technical teams work alongside our customers to help solve coating challenges—not simply sell products.
Whether you need an existing coating system or something developed specifically for your application, we'll work to understand the product, the process, and the conditions it needs to withstand.
Because protecting what you make means understanding what makes it valuable in the first place.
Tell us what you're making. We'll help protect it.
