Future<br />

Vogel Paint Inc. to expand<br />

powder coating facility<br />

Paint Inc.’s future looks bright. The<br />

<strong>Orange</strong> <strong>City</strong> paint firm is shining as its<br />

brushes with success have led to a significant<br />

expansion project to the company’s powder coatings<br />

manufacturing facility.<br />

Work is underway on the project — a three-phase,<br />

five-year, $29.9 million endeavor — which was anticipated<br />

when the current manufacturing facility was<br />

built in the early 2000s.<br />

“When we built the building, we projected we<br />

would reach a point where we would want to add on to<br />

the building over the next 15-20 years, so we designed<br />

the first building with the idea of an addition someday,”<br />

said Drew Vogel.<br />

However, Vogel — president and CEO of the longtime<br />

family-owned business that is known for manufacturing<br />

paint coatings for the architectural, heavy-<br />

Quality control technician Gina Renzi<br />

sprays test panels with a powder coating.<br />

The entire powder coating manufacturing<br />

facility is undergoing a major expansion<br />

project, effectively doubling in size.<br />
