Company History and Experience

Ennis-Flint, Inc.’s predecessor corporation, Ennis Paint, Inc., was incorporated in Texas on June 21, 1996, but traces its formation to 1976.

Now headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina, Ennis-Flint, Inc. has been working for over forty years to help make roads safe for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Ennis-Flint’s comprehensive portfolio of pavement marking products includes over 25 brands in the United States and over 50 brands globally. With over 20 manufacturing and distribution centers collectively supplying traffic safety products to over

60 countries, Ennis-Flint products can be found in all kinds of environments. Our experience encompasses every aspect of traffic safety markings, from traditional paints, beads, and thermoplastics, to high-performance formulas and plural components for road and highway striping, and preformed thermoplastic for transverse markings, heavy-duty intersections, and custom horizontal surface signage.

In April 2012, Ennis Paint, Inc. combined operations with Flint Trading, Inc., a North Carolina corporation, and started doing business under the

Ennis-Flint brand. On December 31, 2017, Ennis Paint, Inc. and Flint

Trading, Inc. merged into Ennis-Flint, Inc., a North Carolina corporation.

On December 23, 2020, PPG Industries, Inc. purchased all of the shares of Ennis-Flint Inc.’s indirect parent entity. Following the transaction, Ennis-Flint, Inc. remains a corporate entity and continues to be the party that will perform under the contract.

Ennis-Flint prides itself on reliability and innovation, making us a worldwide leader in the traffic safety and pavement marking industry.

We are an active member of the American Traffic Safety Services

Association (ATSSA), an international industry association dedicated to advancing roadway safety through innovation and shared knowledge.
