　　Tnemec Company, Inc. announced it has acquired St. Louis-based coatings company ProPolymer Coatings.

　　ProPolymer Coatings provides tank linings, exterior coatings and containment products for various plants, from food and chemical processing plants to power generation facilities.

　　“Tnemec and the ProPolymer team are both excited about this endeavor,” said Chase Bean, president, Tnemec.

　　ProPolymer Coatings are formulated to withstand a chemical attack on steel and concrete substrates, especially in industry-specific types of plants around the U.S. Their offerings include high-performance vinyl ester linings, secondary containment products for industrial processing; polymer concrete materials, manufactured for thermal shock and chemical resistance; and high-build, surface-tolerant epoxy coatings.

　　“These products will certainly help strengthen Tnemec’s existing line of protective coatings and linings,” Bean said.

　　The products will be manufactured and packaged at Tnemec’s main manufacturing facilities located in North Kansas City, Missouri, and offered through Tnemec independent sales representatives throughout North America and abroad.

　　“We offer long-lasting, unique solutions to protect processing facilities,” Bean said. “From decorative flooring systems to insulating coatings for condensation control and thermal protection, and now ProPolymer products, every coating in Tnemec’s lineup is designed to help our customers feel confident in their coatings choice.”
