NPCA is a voluntary, nonprofit trade association -- established more than a century ago -- and the preeminent organization in the United States representing some 350 paint and coatings manufacturers, raw materials suppliers and distributors. NPCA's primary role is to serve as ally and advocate on legislative, regulatory and judicial issues at the federal, state and local levels.

An important NPCA objective: to serve the information needs of NPCA members, the general public and the media through our Industry Outreach Program, overseen by our Public Affairs Division. The NPCA Industry Outreach Program includes proactive public and media outreach, publications dissemination and other educational efforts; this home page is part of NPCA's ongoing effort to broaden this program.

NPCA also includes the Health, Safety & Environmental Affairs Division, which is responsible for administering and supervising all technical, scientific and related activities. The Government Affairs Division coordinates the paint industry's interests before and acts as liaison with legislative and regulatory bodies at all levels of government. The NPCA's Administration Division oversees the operation of the staff, member services, and headquarters.
