OUR STORY
Davies Paints Philippines, Inc. started operations in 1982 under the company name Charter Chemical & Coating Corp., setting up its first manufacturing plant and main office in Pasig City, Metro Manila. In 1990, the company started distribution of marine paints and heavy-duty coatings in the Philippines under Maincoat, Inc. as appointed by world-renowned Chugoku Marine Paint, Ltd., Japan’s No. 1 marine paint company.
Over the years, Davies has continuously innovated and produced numerous pioneering products: Biofresh+, the first local odorless and anti-bacterial paint; Clean Air, the first anti-formaldehyde paint; and Aqua Gloss-It, the first water-based quick drying enamel paint – all first in their respective categories in the country.
