The Paint Quality Institute was founded in 1989 in Philadelphia, USA to educate people on the advantages of using high quality interior and exterior paints and coatings. Initially focussed on the North American region, the institute has now expanded to cover the main regions of the world — Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific.

The expertise offered by the site is partly based on the in-depth experience and understanding of the paint industry offered by the PQI team, details below.

It is also founded on the practical learnings generated by the Institute’s broad range of test sites. These are located in 14 different sites worldwide — again, details below — and consist of over 30,000 panels painted with over 100,000 different paint formulations. These formulations are exposed continuously to real life conditions and the impact of this exposure monitored over time.
