Association History
The National Association of Pipe Coating Applicators (NAPCA) was founded in 1965 by a group of protective coating professionals who were intent on bringing manufacturing efficiency and product standardization to the plant-applied coating industry. Coating applicators came to recognize the marketing and cost benefits of coordinating their efforts through this organization and have effectively caused most pipeline coatings to be applied in-plant.
Today, the industry better manages production processes and works together to create innovative coating materials that meet environmental and safety compliance requirements. These coordinated efforts are evident at the well attended Association Member events. This membership has grown to more than 135 U.S. and international companies and includes the world’s foremost applicators, manufacturers and coating professionals.
