Tech Gets SMART at Sherwin Williams
Our staff at Tech Painting were recently invited for a private tour of the Sherwin Williams/Duron
Paint manufacturing plant in Beltsville, MD. We saw first-hand the
extremely large vats of latex paint being mixed, canned, labeled, and
then stacked by their new robot, "Robbie." The Beltsville plant
produces 13,000,000 gallons of paint annually, and distributes it from
Virginia all the way up to Maine. Not only do they have a "Smart"
approach to a safe working environment, they are also green conscious.
Recycling bins are set up throughout the plant for paper and plastic,
and they are one of the first plants to recycle the 5-gallon plastic
buckets, keeping them out of the landfill.
