Expands into electrical insulation and automotive engine coatings.

NCP Coatings LLC, a leading manufacturer of industrial and military coatings, announces it has acquired Glyptal Inc., a manufacturer of high-performance insulating enamel technologies serving the electrical and automotive markets.
This marks NCP’s first acquisition since becoming private equity backed. It supports the company’s long-term strategy to build a mid-market coatings leader focused on high-performance, technology-driven solutions.
Founded as a development arm of General Electric and later spun off as a private company, Glyptal has operated for decades as a specialty provider of insulating coatings used in electric motors, transformers, coils, and other industrial applications.
Its products are trusted for their durability, thermal stability, and insulating performance across OEM and repair market segments.
Under the terms of the agreement, Glyptal’s brand will remain intact, and operations will be integrated into NCP Coatings’ headquarters in Niles, MI. Customers will continue to receive the same products and formulations while gaining access to the broader NCP portfolio, including a wide range of industrial and military coatings.
The acquisition closed on July 31, 2025. Glyptal’s family ownership will assist with the transition over the coming months before exiting the business.
“Acquiring Glyptal is a meaningful and strategic step forward for NCP,” says Doug Mattscheck, CEO of NCP Coatings. “Glyptal’s legacy in the electrical coatings space aligns well with our vision to expand into specialty industrial segments where technical performance matters most.
“This acquisition complements our portfolio, extends our reach into new applications, and signals our intent to continue scaling the business through technology-led growth,” adds Mattscheck.
“Our focus throughout this integration is on ensuring a seamless experience for Glyptal’s customers,” Lacey Meer, chief commercial officer of NCP Coatings, says. “They can continue to rely on the same high-performance formulations and technical support they’ve known for decades.
“Now, they’ll also have access to NCP’s broader portfolio and expanded capabilities,” adds Meer. “This move reinforces our commitment to smart, strategic growth while preserving the strengths that make Glyptal a trusted name in its field.”
