HOUSTON - January 22, 2007 -- International Paint LLC, an Akzo Nobel company, and one of the world's leading providers of high-performance coatings, has opened a new Distribution Center to serve their customers throughout the North Central region of the United States.
The new 20,000 square-foot facility will offer a full range of high-performance protective, marine and specialty coatings to their growing clientele in the industrial, aviation, OEM, oil and gas, chemical processing, both hydro carbon and cellulosic fire protection, mining, power and metal fabrication markets.
"Opening the St. Louis Distribution Center not only gives us closer proximity to our customers," said Kevin Perego, International Paint's Protective Coatings Sales Zone Manager, "but also allows us to provide more focused service, including the ability to deliver products within as little as 24 hours of receiving an order."
International Paint's decision to open the new facility is the first step of a larger, long-term effort to expand distribution of their high-performance protective and marine coatings throughout Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska.
According to the facility's Regional District Manager, Justin Stenger, the distribution center will feature state-of-the-art technology including two automated tinting machines that accommodate both solvent and water-based coatings, in order to ensure that International Paint's full range of top-quality coatings are immediately available upon ordering. In addition to managing the warehouse, Stenger will also be responsible for overseeing operations at International Paint's Chicago and Cincinnati distribution centers.
The St. Louis Distribution Center is located at 1700 St. Louis Road, Collinsville, IL, 62234-1802. Customers can place orders by calling 800-589-1267.
