Three Decades of Experience

 

From the first day Darwin Coulter opened our doors in 1984, the focus of our family company was to develop the highest quality custom products to meet the critical specifications of our customers. Over the years, Coulter worked one-on-one with our customers to develop unique painted finishes on an expansive variety of surfaces. Our growth accelerated in the early 1990s with the development of custom painted caps for the aerosol spray paint industry. We then moved into the metalization business, using real silver to provide chrome coatings for a growing market portfolio. Today, we provide proprietary finishes to such major U.S. companies as Rust-Oleum, Sherwin Williams, P&G, Conair, and IP Moldings as well as international firms in Europe and North America. Since our inception, we have been committed to growing, learning, and expanding our products. We continue to focus on Coulter’s mission and make our customers the #1 priority.
