Sherwin-Williams is a global producer of paints and coatings with a rich history of innovation. Since its founding by Henry Sherwin and Edward Williams in 1866, The Sherwin-Williams Company has not only grown to be the largest producer of paints and coatings in the United States, but is among the largest producers in the world.

For more than 140 years, we have been determined to lead our industry, to manufacture and market innovative products of superior quality, to operate a safe, clean and friendly workplace, to observe the highest ethical standards in business conduct and to reward our investors.

Today, the pioneering spirit at Sherwin-Williams lives on - with the formulation of new products that are more durable, longer lasting, easier to apply, and friendlier to the environment. As an alternative to traditional solvent-based polymers, the company's technical staff has developed coatings with waterborne and high-solids resins that are VOC-compliant, and exceed application and performance expectations.

The pursuit of excellence is a commitment, not an achievement. This commitment is a vital part of the Sherwin-Williams culture. It is a pledge that joins every Sherwin-Williams employee together in service to our customers and shareholders.
