Our customers are in business to manufacture and develop products, not coatings. Many of APV's customers have made the determination to eliminate the internal production of incidental chemicals to concentrate investments in their core businesses, while others use APV to routinely build their branded solutions.

There are a number of compelling reasons for a company to consider outsourcing with APV Engineered Coatings:
  • APV is highly regarded among its customers for their heritage of spawning innovative solutions through superior listening skills, and for the ease with which they conduct business.
  • Many large customers routinely turn to APV to produce coatings that are technically difficult to produce.
  • In a world of continuing increases in raw material costs, our experience and buying power can provide the ability to fix raw material costs for customer products.
  • In addition, customers can reduce inventory costs of raw materials and costly repairs to internal equipment.
  • As a reliable outsource partner, APV can relieve the user of many EPA, OSHA and HAPS (Hazardous Air Pollutants) considerations not directly related to the production of core products.
  • Outsourcing also can also free up valuable floor space, manpower, and capital investments for more important primary manufacturing operations.
  • APV is large enough to have top-rated people and production resources, but small enough to offer flexible production quantities.
  • Outsourcing also permits a company, perhaps for the first time, to calculate the true costs of producing ancillary products internally. Over the years, APV has learned that customers frequently underestimate the true costs of maintaining an ancillary operation within their manufacturing facilities.
  • An outsourcing arrangement with APV may reduce the user's insurance coverage of what might be considered a significant internal risk.
  • APV has enjoyed 130 years of experience in the development, testing, mixing, production and packaging of specialty chemicals and has won many customer certificates and citations for their precision and consistency of quality.
  • All customers have unlimited access to our fully-staffed and equipped laboratories, and APV can be an important long-term partner to your firm's development of engineered solutions.
  • The APV Quality Program utilizes the latest SPC techniques and quality control inspection techniques, and batch certifications are supplied with each shipment.
  • APV is located in the middle of the nation's rubber, paint, specialty chemicals industries - well positioned for next-day and two-day deliveries of finished products.
  • Customers place great confidence in APV's long history of keeping customers trade secrets confidential.
  • Because APV stays focused on their competency of engineering coatings solutions, the company guarantees every batch, every time, so you can start getting used to no scrap.
