If you are searching for the best protective coatings provider in Canada for your next project, chances are high you have come across IPC.
With over 45 years in the chemical coatings industry, Integrated Protective Coatings (IPC) has become the leader in the coatings application market.
Our proven reputation is based on everything from the exceptional products we carry to our skilled team and the processes we rely on to deliver a customer experience that is unmatched by our competitors.
While there are even more reasons why IPC has become the top applicator for the biggest coating manufacturers in the world, we sat down with Head Engineer Andrew Migdal to get his take.
With over 35 years of experience in the industry, Andrew provides invaluable coating and material recommendations as well as metallurgical and chemical engineering support to many of our clients.
Here is what he had to say about IPC and why he believes we are the best protective coating manufacturer in Canada.
#1 IPC Offers The Best Protective Coatings Products in North America
Our protective coating products are engineered to meet the most corrosive and erosive challenges faced by multiple industries including the harshest conditions dealt with in the oil and gas sector.
Our raw materials including our fluoropolymer and nickel electroless chemicals are purchased from the best suppliers in the world. Because of this, we have become the industry leader in Western Canada for electroless nickel plating; a more versatile, economical and environmentally friendly alternative to other surface treatment methods.
While we may have the best products on the market, we never stop innovating. We are always looking for ways to further enhance the quality of our coatings including testing supported by external laboratories.
