Royal Coatings

"Royal Coatings manufactures protective coatings for industrial and marine applications. Our corporate headquarters is in Belle Chasse, Louisiana, on the intercoastal canal outside New Orleans. We currently manufacture our protective coatings at 5 locations across the U.S. and have expanded our facility five times in the last 28 years. Our worldwide distribution and representative network allow us to support projects on every continent. Some of the industries we currently serve are marine, oil & gas, and general infrastructure. Royal Coatings was founded in 1992 by engineer and businessman Owen Jones to develop technologies to improve worker safety. Jones noticed workers frequently being injured when applying hot oils and greases for corrosion protection to the inside of barges. Void Kote™, our water-based protective coating, was soon developed and adopted across various industries. Today, two out of every three barges on the Mississippi River have been coated with Royal Coatings products."
