Dura Coat Products, Inc

Dura Coat Products, Inc. specializes in high-performance coatings, offering a range of factory-applied solutions for diverse applications across various industries, including construction, automotive, and HVAC. Founded in 1986, Dura Coat Products, Inc. is located in Riverside, US, and operates as a division of Axalta Coating Systems.

The company was acquired in August 2016, after a majority stake was purchased by Axalta, which is a portfolio company of Carlyle Group. The founder’s specific history is not provided, and there are no noted changes in business strategy or operations. Dura Coat Products focuses on high-performance coatings, primarily in coil and extrusion coatings. Their product range includes Polyester, Silicone Modified Polyester (SMP), Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF), and Acrylic systems, designed for controlled factory applications.

These coatings offer benefits such as durability and chemical resistance and serve markets globally including North America, Europe, and Asia with applications in architectural facades, roofing, and automotive sectors. Dura Coat Products operates on a B2B model, collaborating with approved applicators and manufacturers to provide tailored coating solutions. Revenue is derived from long-term contracts or one-off orders, with flagship products like Durapon70® and Ceranamel™ forming a substantial part of sales. Pricing structures are negotiated based on project specifications and application complexity.

Following the acquisition in 2016, Dura Coat Products aims to enhance its product offerings and expand into new markets. They are likely developing new product lines to meet specific market demands. The recent acquisition by Axalta Coating Systems may provide resources to support these initiatives. Specific release dates for new products or targeted geographic expansions have not been disclosed.
