Our annual International Buyers’ Guide serves as a valuable reference tool to the paint and coatings industry. It is comprised of a comprehensive listing of companies offering pigments, resins, additives, solvents and oils, as well as production and laboratory equipment to the paint and coatings industry. The Coatings World staff has been working hard throughout the year to make sure this guide offers the most complete listing of suppliers to our industry. Contact information for suppliers includes sales office in the U.S., Europe and Asia-Pacific region.

This wide-ranging guide is also available in a digital version. Readers can search our online database at www.coatingsworld.com to look up raw material and equipment suppliers and their contact details.
