Who We Are

The members of the Coating Society of the Houston Area include persons and companies in southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana involved in corrosion mitigation.  Membership consists of end users, applicators, inspectors, manufacturers and suppliers.

What We Do

The primary objectives of the Coating Society of the Houston Area are as follows:

• Advance members’ knowledge of surface preparation, selection of coatings and coating systems, and application of protective coatings through discussions and planned programs.
• Act as a conduit for interchanging ideas, experiences, and state-of-the-art practices for preventing corrosion.
• Promote understanding by users, suppliers, and contractors of their mutual problems.

How We Do It

The Coating Society holds regular meetings on the first Thursday of each month of the year except June, July, and August. These meetings are open to the public and we encourage anyone with interest in coatings or related products and services to attend. Currently the meetings are held at Brady's Landing in Houston, TX with a social gathering at 6:00 and the meeting with dinner begins at 6:45.

The Coating Society of the Houston Area also sponsors a golf tournament, trade show and a painters competition every spring. At the end of the year the society has a Christmas party where proceeds from the year are distributed to local candidates in the form of scholorships.
