Technology Publishing Company (TPC) is a business-to-business media company covering the protective, marine and industrial coatings industries. TPC offers a variety of market data and insight tools and the curation of custom media. Our mission is to advance the science and technology in these fields by disseminating information about best practices in the selection and use of coatings and related construction materials. Two cornerstones of the company’s operations are (1) to serve readers across the entire value chain within a business segment, such as suppliers, specifiers, facility owners, and contractors; and (2) to create the highest quality content, in part by recruiting top industry thinkers as advisers and contributors. TPC holds a yearly event that has become one of the most prestigious networking events, Contractor Connect. Contractor Connect is a three-day “hosted-buyer” event for the protective and marine coatings industry that brings together qualified buyers (contractors) and sellers (suppliers). This event is invitation only; however, inquiries are welcomed. Over the course of the event, major industrial coating contractors and suppliers will have substantial opportunities to further develop personal and professional relationships. These enhanced contacts will lead to new business and the growth of existing customer accounts. Additional information can be found on our website.
