RPM International (RPM), a specialty coatings, sealants and building materials provider, officially opens the doors to its new Innovation Center of Excellence in Greensboro, North Carolina. This 60,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility is the first shared research and development center for RPM companies.
Accelerating Innovative Solutions
It is designed to foster partnership and harness collective expertise among RPM companies to accelerate innovation for their customers. The facility represents a continuation of the increased collaboration that has been developed through MAP 2025 initiatives.
The features of Innovation Center of Excellence include liquid and powder application labs, resin and analytical labs, a sample production area and a formulation lab, among other resources. It will also serve as a destination for onsite customer training and application trials.
“
The Innovation Center of Excellence builds upon RPM’s legacy by allowing the companies to leverage their collective strengths to deliver solutions more quickly and efficiently than they could do on their own,” said Frank C. Sullivan, RPM chairman and chief executive officer.
