International Paint Protective Coatings has announced that
expansion of its Berea, OH, manufacturing facility is now complete, bringing
production of the company’s Ceilcote
® and Enviroline
®
brands together under one roof.
Ceilcote’s high-performance, corrosion-resistant linings and
coatings have been manufactured in Berea
since the early 1950s, with a newer production facility built at the site in
2005. Expanding that facility to include production of Enviroline’s ultra-low
VOC corrosion protection coatings allows International Paint Protective
Coatings to leverage brand synergies and control escalating costs. These
factors, along with the facility’s made-to-order capabilities, are expected to
double product production and help minimize price increases to customers.
“The six-month expansion project was carefully orchestrated
between technical, health and safety, manufacturing, supply, quality control,
marketing, sales, information technology, and customer service personnel to
ensure a seamless transition,” said Chris Tiernay, vice president of
International Paint Protective Coatings, North America. “The expansion affords
our customers the same high-quality products they’ve come to rely on, with the
added benefit of enhanced supply and support services.”
