State Metrics

It is NPCA's goal to provide its members and targeted industry audiences with detailed, factual information about the industry. The information highlighted here is intended to meet that goal.

2006 State-by-State Statistics for the Paint and Coatings Industry

This chart, which is presented as a PDF, shows the most recent labor market statistics for the industry, including employment, wages, payroll, and establishments for the year 2006. In addition, statistics are included for state-by-state exports.

This information may be used by members to customize NPCA's “Paint and Coatings ... More than You Know” PowerPoint presentation, by inserting the statistics for a particular state in place of the national statistics in the original presentation.

This is only one suggestion, as this information may prove useful for a variety of purposes for use by NPCA members, as well as others conducting research on our industry.
