Company Description

In 1977, Farwest Paint purchased the operating assets of Matson Paint Products, which specialized in the marine paint and lacquer business. At that time, Farwest moved both the Farwest and Matson operations to our present location in Tukwila. Needing additional space for our business expansion, in 1986 Farwest Paint constructed a 15,000 sq. ft. warehouse with a new retail store. The warehouse holds our raw materials and finished paint products. The 2,500 sq. ft. store, directly connected to the warehouse, serves our expanding customer base. In 1990, Farwest Paint purchased the operating assets of Jarvie Paint Co. which was known for its government specification coatings, industrial primers and finish coatings as well as specialty coatings such as copper bottom paint and electrostatic finishes. Both Jarvie Paint and Matson Paint Products are divisions of Farwest Paint Manufacturing Co. In addition to our Northwest region business, Farwest Paints, Jarvie Paints, and Matson Paints are now sold and distributed throughout the United States and many of our products are destined for shipment overseas.
