About IGP Pulvertechnik
IGP Pulvertechnik AG, headquartered in Kirchberg SG near Wil, develops, produces and distributes powder coating solutions for surface applications in architecture, industry and transport as well as for the coating of wood-based materials. With IGP powder coatings, facades, furniture, window frames, vehicles, enclosure and machine parts as well as construction and agricultural machinery receive a protective and aesthetic surface. The product range includes weather-resistant systems for outdoor architectural applications, corrosion-protecting low-temperature coatings with curing windows from 150 °C for heavy steel components, chemical-resistant and electrically conductive systems as well as specialties for galvanized steel and cast metals up to corrosivity category C4H. In 2024, the company produced around 15,000 tonnes of powder coating and generated revenue of approximately 140 million Swiss francs. IGP is 100 percent family-owned, part of the DOLD GROUP and represented with its own sales companies in Europe and North America. The service offering includes custom color development, training, testing in its own research laboratories, and OEM management for manufacturers and contract coaters.
