Association for Materials Protection and Performance

AMPP was created when NACE International and SSPC the Society for Protective Coatings merged in 2021.

Additional offices are located in the U.K., China, Malaysia, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia with a training center in Dubai.

AMPP administers accreditation programs for contractors working in the protective coatings and linings industries.
