Dampney’s experience in the field of high performance coatings dates back to 1906 when English researcher John
Dampney first produced and marketed Apexior Number 1, a unique protective coating capable of preventing
corrosion of the internal surfaces of steam boilers, turbines, and auxiliary equipment. Application of Apexior coatings
solved many costly corrosion problems for the English power industry. A market for Apexior quickly developed here in
the U.S. power industry. To fulfill this growing demand, a group of U.S. investors incorporated The Dampney
Company of America in Boston, Massachusetts in 1917, manufacturing and marketing Apexior brand corrosion-
resistant coatings under license from the English firm of J. Dampney and Co., Ltd.
Success in this demanding application in the U.S. power industry established Dampney’s reputation as a pioneer in
the field of corrosion control and inspired our corporate mission: to develop high-performance protective coatings for
special exposures, operating conditions, and end uses. Dampney’s Thurmalox coatings exemplify our commitment
to solving industry’s most extreme coating problems. Our Thurmalox line offers solutions for harsh environments
including extreme temperatures, corrosion under insulation, high-build corrosion, hot water-side corrosion, and in-
service hot equipment applications.
TODAY’S TECHNOLOGY
Dampney continues to develop and improve industry’s choice of innovative, right-the-first-time coating systems for
protection against hostile environments in atmospheric, immersion, and underground applications. Coating systems
are based on a broad range of polymers and pigments resistant to chemicals, extreme heat and weather. Individual
coatings and systems are tailored for application to masonry, metal, plastic, and wooden surfaces.
PRODUCT LINES
Our primary product lines include:
THURMALOX High Temperature Industrial Protective Coatings - for metal structures subjected to high
temperatures and corrosive environments.

Dampney’s coating application news articles have appeared in leading technical publications, including: American
Painting Contractor, Chemical Engineering, Chemical Processing, Journal of Protective Coatings and Linings, Plant
Engineering, Plant Services, Gas Industries, and others.
Case histories describing the application of our coating systems under demanding or unusual service conditions are
available, as well as a partial client list of engineering and construction firms who specified these products, and
refining, chemical processing and utility corporations who use these protective coatings.
Dampney supports the leading technical and trade associations serving the protective coating and paint industries,
and is a member of the National Paint and Coatings Association (NPCA), Canadian Paint and Coating Association
(CPCA), National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE), and Steel Structures Painting Council (SSPC).
MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES
Continuous modernization and expansion of our Everett, Massachusetts plant gives us the manufacturing flexibility
and capacity to meet increased demand for standard and custom coatings, and the ability to produce new and
innovative coating systems. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing processes include a computer controlled formula
maintenance, batch production, and inventory control system, as well as a computer controlled color matching
system.
As a result of our capital investments, we have optimized our cost control, production efficiency and quality assurance
programs.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Our well-equipped product laboratory enables us to develop new and better coatings to meet industry’s ever changing
needs. We adhere to strict manufacturing quality control standards, and with our testing facilities, we help solve
customers’ coating and corrosion problems and carefully evaluate existing and new protective coatings, systems and
raw materials.
TECHNICAL SERVICES
Dampney provides quality coating products tailored to each customer’s requirements, backed by technical service to
ensure the coating’s most effective use. Our protective coating technical service entails making a comprehensive
survey; analyzing the results and making recommendations; providing laboratory services, surface preparation and
application guidance; as well as field inspection and periodic follow-up after project completion. Dampney’s technical
service assures maximum protection at the lowest total cost.
