Team

MontiPower® believes in the power of good service.
It starts with great people.

Many brains, one objective. Day in, day out, we all do our best for the success of the company, to satisfy your demands and to make you happy. Each and every one of us – be it in R&D, Production, Sales, PR, Marketing, Purchasing, Administration or in the Warehouse. One goal, one mission, one team!

Working together as a team is the key to make sure clients’ needs are being met at every level of the organization.

Our employees are some of the most well-respected members in the coating industry. Many with top certifications from SSPC, NACE and / or FROSIO, and with decades of coating and surface preparation knowledge and skills in the field. Wherever you are, we have experienced and knowledgeable people there, ready to take the hassle out of your job.

Our flat hierarchy and the lean MontiPower® structure gives our entrepreneurial employees the freedom they require.
