HMG Coatings Expands Support for Agricultural and Machinery Markets

HMG Paints, headquartered in Manchester, UK, will further expand its support for the UK agricultural and machinery market in 2024, expanding its dealer network and product support.

HMG has partnered with a number of UK companies to supply products including primers, topcoats, DTMs and tinted products across the UK , with shorter delivery time, as supply chains for European products are disrupted due to COVID-19, Brexit and ongoing supply issues around the world.

the 2023 Buying British Survey was conducted by Made in Britain and OnePoll's fourth annual report, Buying British, highlighted companies looking inward for suppliers, with 66% of respondents saying they were starting to order more British-made goods . Additionally, half of UK businesses (47%) and even more of the public (58%) say they prefer to buy British-made products over imported alternatives from other countries.

"We are very proud to be a British paint manufacturer in an industry dominated by multinationals. All of our products are manufactured in Manchester, which allows us to quickly meet our customers' paint and coatings requirements, either directly or through our distribution network", HMG Paints Business Director Danny Cleary said.

Acrythane SC601 offers an eye-catching finish and exceptional durability, making it ideal for the agricultural and construction equipment (ACE) and restoration markets.

Acrythane SC601 not only provides an impeccable finish but also provides excellent protection against harsh weather conditions and atmospheric pollution. Its resilience ensures that equipment and machinery maintain their appearance and functionality for years to come.
