Seymour

Seymour, the largest family-owned and privately held aerosol paint manufacturer in the United States, has been a pioneer in the paint industry since 1949 when founder Ed Seymour invented the first aerosol paint spray can in Sycamore, Illinois. Originally created to demonstrate aluminum radiator paint, this innovation sparked a global industry revolution. Today, Seymour is trusted by both professionals and DIY enthusiasts for its comprehensive line of premium paints, spray paints, coatings, and chemicals used across diverse applications - from roads and athletic fields to automotive and industrial equipment. The company has demonstrated environmental leadership by voluntarily phasing out harmful CFCs before regulations required it, developing water-based alternatives, and being the first to comply with California's strict VOC emissions standards. Throughout its evolution from a small invention to an industry leader, Seymour has maintained its commitment to quality, innovation, and environmental responsibility while continuing to enhance people's lives through its products across the globe.
