World Class Technology

Altex Coatings has been manufacturing industrial and marine coatings tailored to the Australasian maritime climate and specific industrial environments such as dairy and dairy processing, meat processing, pulp and paper mills, fertiliser plants, aluminium smelters, fisheries and latterly over the past 20 years the demanding environments of the off-shore and on-shore oil industry.

From day one Altex has developed its own unique products with a number of industry ‘firsts’; through full time, on site research and development chemists.  However this home grown technology has been, and will continue to be, strengthened by strategic licensing agreements with globally renowned technology leading industrial coatings manufacturers.

“Our commitment is continuous improvement across all performance and environmental aspects of our products” says Managing Director, Mike O'Sullivan.
