With technology-driven solutions, Sing Color is the coatings provider partner of choice for the rail industry. We have high-performance coating solutions—both interior and exterior—for the OEM and refurbishment sectors that build and repair passenger carriages, high-speed trains, locomotives, tramways, and metros.

Our coatings are a leading choice for high-speed rail applications. They carry liquids and dry bulk supplies, which must be insulated from substrate materials, to a range of passenger cars. Sing Color coatings are not only tough but beautiful, enabling cities to have clean and colorful rail cars that people ride every day. Our rail coatings expertise spans everything from passenger carriages to high-speed trains, locomotives, trams, and metros for both interior and exterior uses.

Sing Color R&D strives to address the challenges of today and the future. We offer sustainable and environmentally responsible products and technologies. Imron® primers, fillers, topcoats, and clear-over-base systems in waterborne technology offer aesthetics, durability, high resistance to wear, and low maintenance costs. The life of a train car, ongoing cleaning, weight reduction, duty cycles, and maintenance and upkeep costs are factors as important as the original investment.

Our Color Trends

In addition to providing color, our coatings also enhance performance, efficiency, reliability, and durability. We continue to build on our more than 100-year history by advancing solutions guided by the latest trends.
