About us

Eguchi Iwao is a global coatings and consumables supply chain specialist

Over a Century of Excellence in Coatings & Innovation

Founded in 1907 in Nagoya, Japan, we have grown into one of Japan’s largest suppliers of paints, coatings, and specialty materials. With over a century of experience, we’ve expanded our footprint across Asia, Africa, and Europe, delivering smart coatings, advanced equipment, and full technical support. Our mission is to provide everything our customers need, ready for use, on time, and with the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

In 2019, Eguchi Iwao Europe (EIE) was inaugurated in the UK, marking a major step in our international growth. This move was reinforced by the acquisition of the Supply 360 division from International Applications Ltd., opening doors to major clients including Hitachi, Jaguar Land Rover, and Toyota.

Through strategic alliances with leading manufacturers such as Kansai Paint and Helios Group, Eguchi Iwao continues to deliver on its promise of quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction across the automotive, industrial, rail, wood, yacht, and architectural sectors.
