about
Bullet Liner International™
The roots of Bullet Liner in the polyurethane protective coating industry run deep—to the very inception of the industry itself more than 30 years ago. Claudio Burtin, his brother J.B. and his father Carlos Burtin founded the Burtin Corporation in 1982 and began to develop and invent polyurethane-based chemicals for a variety of cutting edge applications. With experimentation and development, Claudio pioneered a polyurea coating technology that bonded to almost any surface to offer maximum exterior protection against scratches, dings, rust, corrosion and more.
In noticing the damage inflicted upon the cargo area of the delivery trucks that brought the barrels of his raw chemical materials, Claudio realized there was an existing opportunity to help protect trucks and vehicles from the rigors of hauling cargo. He started a division spraying his amazing invention into pick-up truck beds, tailgates, wheel wells and similar applications—and the business quickly grew. He was the first in the industry to devise an advanced coating system that was virtually rust-proof, long lasting and impervious to extreme weather conditions, while delivering the improved UV protection, and enhanced puncture and abrasion resistance, ideal for customers who love their vehicles and aren’t afraid to use them in rugged environments.
Burtin eventually sold the initial spray-on truck bedliner company—and over the years, the Burtin-pioneered technology has been real world tested in millions of vehicles around the globe. However, Burtin himself wasn’t satisfied. His continued research and development led him to create a high-calibre formulation that he felt was military grade tough—and in 2010, Claudio, then CEO of Burtin Polymer Laboratories, raised the bar even higher with the launch of the Bullet Liner brand.
Besides the obvious physical protection benefits provided by Bullet Liner, Burtin, for the first time, developed a formulation to maintain a high lustre shine that would last for years. He was excited to create a solution that was available with a colour matching system enabling customers and distributors to finally match, or contrast, virtually any exterior colour. The permanent bonding characteristics of Bullet Liner also assured long lasting protection by adhering to all targeted contours for a complete and total seal from the elements. This allowed customers to enjoy the colours they loved, and also double-down to protect their investment. These offerings were revolutionary in the industry—and continue to set the bar today.
In 2015, Bullet Liner was purchased by Accella Performance Materials, the leading independent polyurethane systems house in North America. Accella’s world-class chemists continued to take the Bullet Liner brand, now part of the Carlisle Companies brand family, to the next level—making the technology an international industrial, commercial and personal truck/automotive application, with an unlimited ability for customization and use.
Bullet Liner is currently the gold standard for the entire spray-on protective coating industry, and one of the world’s leading networks of certified elastomer spray coating applicators.
