As an innovative leader in the colorant industry, DayGlo Color was the originator of Daylight Fluorescent Color and has also developed a wide range of special effect colorants and conventional color pigment dispersions for use in the color consuming industries. Its markets consist primarily of plastics, graphic arts, paints and coatings, dyes and textiles. The company was founded in 1946 by Bob and Joe Switzer, who originally experimented with certain dyes and resins that produced bright colors that had the unique effect of glowing under ultraviolet light. These unique effects were originally used in magic shows and theater. As the chemistry and manufacturing process improved, the areas of application expanded. In 1991, DayGlo was purchased by its current owner, RPM, a worldwide producer of coatings, sealants and specialty chemicals. DayGlo supplies the world market from four production facilities, three in the United States and one in Belgium.
