U.S. Paint, a developer and manufacturer of customized automotive and industrial paints and coatings, contracted McGrath & Associates to design and build a new $5 million warehouse at the former’s facility in downtown St. Louis.
 
McGrath will work in two phases to replace an existing warehouse with a 33,000-square-foot building while the manufacturing facility remains operational. During phase one, McGrath will build a new pre-engineered metal building to provide new office space, a maintenance shop, a battery charging area and storage for raw materials. A connecting link will tie the new building into an existing manufacturing building to allow covered access for forklift truck traffic.
 
During phase two, the existing raw materials warehouse will be demolished and a new building constructed to provide space for a quality control lab and liquid materials storage.
 
U.S. Paint was acquired last year by Kansai Paint.
