About us
History

Our offerings have grown systematically and over the years. After 50 years, we are the point of contact for industrial customers at home and abroad for small, large and complex coating jobs.

1968-1987
In 1968, Walter Van Os founded the limited liability company “Van Os” in Bornem. After twenty years, Raf Van Os succeeded Walter, following his far too early death.
1989
Two years later, the joint-stock company “Duracoat” was founded and that same year an automatic powder coating line was installed.
2018-2023
In 2018, the paint shop celebrated its 50th anniversary. With Lakkerij Vandereyt, or V coat from now on, together we offer the whole range of organic coatings, from wet coating over powder coatings to thermoplastic and even fluorine coatings. In 2021, there was the acquisition of Het Veer nv and in 2023, it was time for renewal. Van Os-Duracoat becomes Duracoat and gets a completely new website and corporate identity.
