OUR COMPANY HISTORY

  • 1974: The Beginning

    P.A.T. Products was founded in Maine by a visionary husband and wife team. Initially focused on commodity trading, the company quickly made a name for itself in industries such as pulp and paper, and animal feed.
  • 1980s: European Expansion

    Marking a significant milestone, PAT established its first long-term distribution partnerships with European producers of polyurethane systems and related products. We also expanded our portfolio with natural products like shellac and damar.
  • 1990s: Diversifying and Innovating

    This decade saw the addition of new European supply partnerships, expanding our range to thermoplastics and additives for polyurethane systems, particularly in footwear applications. It also marked the start of our in-house domestic production of liquid color dispersions.
  • 2000s: Widening Horizons

    Our growth continued into new industries such as inks, coatings, paints, water treatment, and metalworking, showcasing our versatility and commitment to meeting diverse industry needs.
  • 2010 - Present: Scaling New Heights

    Recent years have been marked by significant growth in our in-house domestic production capabilities, particularly in color dispersions. Additional production, office, and warehouse locations opened. We also began in-house toll blending operations and rapidly grew our food and beverage division, including the domestic manufacturing of specialty, natural ingredients.
