Competence – experience and innovative spirit
OSNATOL-Werk GmbH & Co. KG is a medium-sized paint manufacturer based in Belm-Vehrte near Osnabrück. The company develops, produces and distributes paints and coating systems for industrial and maritime applications, including industrial paints, corrosion protection systems in accordance with DIN EN ISO 12944, marine paints, fire protection and ATEX coatings, high-temperature-resistant silicone coatings as well as high-solid and water-thinnable systems. Based on around 25,000 products, individual special solutions are developed for different substrates such as steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, aluminium, stainless steel, copper and plastics. Quality assurance is carried out in an own laboratory; an application engineering team advises customers on system structures and VOC reduction plans. Around 50 employees in development, production and distribution serve around 4,000 customers from industries such as construction and agricultural machinery, commercial vehicles, machinery and pump construction, steel construction, and sea, port and inland shipping. In addition to its main plant in Belm-Vehrte, the company operates a branch plant in Möckern-Stegelitz near Magdeburg as well as regional offices throughout Germany and foreign representatives in Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary.
