Honorable Mentions

I came across a couple of companies that manufacture some of their paints in the US. However, they also conduct some of their manufacturing overseas. Here’s what I found.

Sherwin-Williams

Sherwin-Williams is a very well-known American paint company. It was founded in 1866 in Cleaveland, Ohio. Over its more than 150-year history, the company has built a name for itself for its high-quality paints.

As far as its manufacturing goes, it looks like Sherwin-Williams conducts its production throughout various facilities dotted around the world.

Sherwin-Williams’ corporate website states that the company operates over 130 facilities across five geographic regions.

Rust-Oleum is another well-known paint manufacturer. It was founded in Evanston, Illinois in 1921. Today, the company is a subsidiary of RPM International, Inc. But from what I could find, it looks like Rust-Oleum still manufactures its paint under the Rust-Oleum name.

As for its manufacturing locations, similar to the previous entry, Rust-Oleum operates manufacturing facilities all over the world. According to the company’s Wikipedia page, it manufactures its products in Wisconsin, Maryland, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and other locations throughout the US and Europe.

A Question For The Readers

Initially, during my search for American paint manufacturers, I came across lots of companies. However, after investigating each one in more detail, most of them don’t clearly state where their paints are made.
