Inc. 5000 Ranks Black Diamond Coatings #955 America’s Fastest Growing Company

Brooksville, FL (August, 17, 2021): Black Diamond Coatings, Inc., a manufacturing company specializing in commercial-grade paver sealers, polymeric sand, and premium home cleaning products, announced today that it was named one of America's fastest-growing private companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 List. The company ranks among the top 20% of Inc. 5000 honorees, ranking #955 overall with over 500% growth over the past 3 years. Black Diamond Coatings' growth positions it 37th among the fastest growing manufacturers in the US and 80th among the fastest-growing companies in Florida.

"This recognition represents years of dedication to quality, innovation, outstanding customer service, and just plain hard work. Especially in 2020, it took the whole team working harder than ever under extraordinary circumstances to have our best year ever during a time that was challenging for so many other businesses," said David Warren, President of Black Diamond Coatings. "While other companies had to streamline and furlough workers, we were able to nearly double the size of our team after moving into a new manufacturing facility with almost 13,000 additional square feet of space."

Black Diamond Coatings adds this prestigious recognition to a growing list of recent achievements, including inclusion in two 2021 Tampa Bay Business Journal Lists: the "Largest Veteran-Owned Businesses in Tampa Bay" and the "Largest Manufacturers in Tampa Bay."

The company also announced in early August the upcoming Fall launch of a completely new product line and brand: OBSESS™. "We've never been satisfied with the status quo. Years ago, we were the first manufacturer of hardscape sealer and polymeric sand to begin selling direct-to-consumer online; now we're ready to bring the same innovative spirit and commitment to performance into a brand new product category," said company VP Heather Warren. "We expect our OBSESS line of cleaning products to deliver exceptional growth for Black Diamond Coatings going into 2022."

Not only have the US companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 all shown incredible growth individually, they added 2,563,592 jobs over the past three years, and their aggregate revenue was $248 billion in 2020 with a median growth rate of 167%. The Florida companies ranked on the Inc. 5000 contributed 6% of the national revenue growth with an even higher median growth rate of 199%. They added 24,199 new jobs over the past 3 years.
