Painting Tomorrow's Infrastructure
with Robotics and AI

Precision &
Quality

Guaranteed coating application within 0.001” of manufacturer specifications, maximizing coating life and extending product warranties.

14X Faster
Production

Reduce project timelines and multiply painting crew throughput/productivity by applying coatings at 4,500sqft/hr compared to traditional methods of 300-500 sqft/hr

Eliminate
Fall Risk

PaintJet’s fully remote control system keeps operators on the ground, eliminating the possibility of falling from elevated platforms.

25% Waste
Reduction

Precision application reduces overspray and improves coating transfer efficiency, reducing coating consumption by 25%

CORROSION COSTS THE US ECONOMY
OVER 3% OF GDP

The demand for coating services is at An all time high

Both aging infrastructure and new construction require corrosion protection.

Labor accounts for over 80% of all coating costs

On-site coating application is labor intensive and cannot be outsourced.

There aren’t Enough Painters to Meet Demand

Over 100,000 painters are needed to meet today’s needs.  This systemic problem looks to get worse with over 40% of the workforce retiring by 2031.

A Technical Solution

PaintJet multiplies painter productivity by integrating AI & Robotics with the entire coating process
