Crafting Industrial Coating Solutions with Precision
Mastering the Science of Coatings Since 1876
John L. Armitage & Co. is more than just a family-owned coatings and paint manufacturer; we're a cornerstone in the industry that has been setting standards since 1876. With our roots deeply planted in Gallatin, TN, we've grown into a brand that commands respect and trust across North America. When it comes to coatings—be it for structural steel joists, metal buildings, or roof decks—we've built a repertoire that is as diverse as it is specialized.
We're not in the business of 'one-size-fits-all.' Our approach leans heavily on customization. Our internal Research and Development department works tirelessly to develop coatings tailored to each client's specifications and parameters. This involves choosing raw materials that are the gold standard in terms of performance, cost-effectiveness, and environmental compliance. But our commitment to quality doesn't stop there; we've even brought resin manufacturing in-house. The result? Unbeatable prices on water-based primers that deliver on both quality and cost.
The philosophy at John L. Armitage & Co. can be summed up in one word: Excellence. Every department, from R&D and Manufacturing to Customer Service, is aligned to this singular focus. We make no compromises on quality and remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering optimal solutions that meet your production goals and align with industry best practices.
Our journey began over 140 years ago with a commitment to excellence. Our story is one of continuous improvement and growth. Our specialty lies in formulating coatings for the metal, plastic, and wood industries. Over the years, we've expanded our capabilities from solely being a coatings provider to a solutions-oriented partner.
