Nestled in the small town of Etna Green, Indiana, surrounded by farmland is the headquarters of Winona Powder Coating. With additional facilities in Elkhart, the company is a leading supplier of powder coating services to large industrial companies throughout the Midwest.
Founded in 1974, Winona started out as a small fabricator and added powder coating capabilities in 1979. Over time, the company zeroed in its focus on powder coating and was purchased by CEO Jamie Visker in 2002. With Visker at the helm, Winona Powder Coating expanded its 20,000 square foot location in Elkhart to a 50,000 square foot facility with two coating lines. A 25,000 square foot facility in Mentone, Indiana was moved to a 167,000 square foot facility in Etna Green. The company has been continually working to expand its operations ever since. In 2019, Winona Powder Coating installed a second heavy-duty powder coating line and then completed the installation of an electrocoating line in the third quarter of 2020. Each plant is ISO 9001 certified and undergoes recertification on a regular basis. Suffice to say, the company is focused on growing its business and, despite the uncertain times surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, it continues to make strides.
