Gemini Industries, Inc., an employee-owned manufacturer of wood coating solutions, has acquired Diamond Vogel’s Industrial Wood business unit. This strategic milestone underscores Gemini’s commitment to advancing quality, innovation and service in the wood coatings industry. Diamond Vogel has been a trusted name in the industrial wood sector for decades, delivering outstanding products such as Aquinity, a line of waterborne clear and opaque coatings designed to meet evolving market demands. Gemini is honored to build on this remarkable legacy and further elevate the standard of excellence in the industry. “We are excited to welcome Diamond Vogel’s Industrial Wood business into the Gemini family of brands,” said Chris Hicks, President and CEO of Gemini Industries, Inc. “This acquisition aligns seamlessly with our mission to provide world-class wood coatings and unparalleled service. We’re excited to support customers with the same exceptional care and innovation they’ve come to trust.” The transition officially began on Feb. 3, with Gemini assuming responsibility for Diamond Vogel’s Industrial Wood Coatings Division. To ensure a smooth transition, Gemini will retain Diamond Vogel’s dedicated industrial wood sales and technical service staff, providing seamless continuity for customers. Headquartered in El Reno, Oklahoma, Gemini Industries, Inc. has more than 60 years of experience in developing innovative wood coatings for distributors, professional wood finishers and consumers. The brand family offers a complete line of wood finishing products and support materials for both interior and exterior applications as well as real wood flooring.
