Paint & Coatings Packaging

The paint and coating industry is dependent on durable packaging to safely transport its products. Many of this industry’s products are composed of chemicals that can be hazardous and are strictly regulated to safely transport. Paramount Global first started with paint and coating customers and continues to serve this industry with packaging for adhesives, sealants, epoxies, varnishes, lacquers, inks, sprays, paints, and other coatings.

Types of Cans, Pails & Containers for the Paint & Coating Industry

The packaging used in the paint and coatings industry does not vary too widely in shape and size. Common containers found in the industry are round paint style cans, oblong f-style cans, monotops, conetops, aerosol cans, industrial round jugs, and rectangular f-style jugs. Sizes range from one pint to 2.5 gallons. Bulk-sized packaging used in the industry includes pails, drums, and IBC totes with sizes ranging from 1 gallon to 275 gallons. Plastic HDPE jugs and tinplate metal cans are the most common materials used for these types of packaging because of both materials’ trusted durability. Stock metal packaging is often available unlined but is also typically stocked with rust inhibitor or epoxy lining. Matching lids, dispensing systems, and other accessories such as seals are available based on the product needs. Covers with gaskets for plastic pails to tamper-evident closures for plastic jugs are also commonly stocked for a complete package.

UN Rated Packaging

Since some products found in the paint and coatings industry may contain chemicals that can be hazardous if not contained properly, there are strict regulations the packaging must be in compliance with for these types of products. Paramount Global has worked with customers to make sure they meet UN regulations by offering UN-rated packaging and even getting the needed packaging certified. Paramount also has a dedicated logistics team to help customers navigate through the complex landscape of logistics with custom clearance services to competitive freight quotes.

Custom Paint Container Design & Labels

Functionality and safety are a priority for products in the paint and coatings industry. However, there are custom and decoration options for consumer-based products. Lithographic printing is popularly used on metal packaging while silkscreen or labels are the most common method for plastic packaging. Custom container design is also available and any other packaging services are needed for a complete supply chain solution. Speak with a packaging specialist today to learn more about how to grow your paint and coating business with Paramount as your packaging partner.
