Once again, Coatings World brings the industry our Top Companies Report—the only truly global ranking of the top manufacturers of paints, coatings, adhesives and sealants. Our editorial staff has spent many hours researching the industry to provide you with the most accurate ranking of paint and coatings manufacturers operating in the global industry. Rankings are based on annual
sales in U.S. dollars. For companies based outside the U.S., sales are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates from the company’s
;scal closing date. For privately held companies who choose not to disclose sales ;gures, our staff interviews different industry sources
coupled with our own research to come up with an accurate estimate of annual sales. We pro;led 87 companies in this report. All have
sales of $100 million or more annually. Companies marked with an asterisk in the ranking on the following page represent Coatings World
estimate. Bold companies are those making their ;rst appearance as a Top Company.
The Top Companies Report is intended to provide our readers with a snapshot of the industry’s most in;uential players. We hope you
will come away with a clearer insight into the future of this truly global and always evolving industry. If you are a paint, coatings, adhesives
or sealants manufacturer with sales of $100 million or more for ;scal 2013 and would like to be included in our Top Companies Report,
contact me and I will add your company to the online version.
