Test Sites
Paint Quality Institute bases its knowledge partly on the findings gained from its test panels exposed at the many sites around the world.

At any one moment in time, more than 30,000 different test panels covering over 100,000 different paint formulations are being exposed continually under real life conditions and the impact of this exposure monitored over time.

How well each paint formulation performs is registered in painstaking detail. This enables the team members to talk, from experience, on what’s really a good quality paint, and what isn’t.

Here’s list of all the test sites worldwide with an accompanying photo (where available).
