Winning Entry: Krylon Spraydown - Make it Stick
Winner Name: Marcus Thomas LLC
Award: Advertising Standard of Excellence , Social Network Standard of Excellence
In 1947, a Philadelphia businessman, Howard E. Kester, revolutionized the paint industry and founded Krylon, Inc., the first and still largest supplier of aerosol paints in the world. Shortly after Kester brought his idea to market, DuPont introduced Nylon. Kester was so impressed with this development that he dropped the first “n” from nylon, added the first and last letters of his own last name, and the Krylon moniker was born! Krylon aerosol clear coatings were limited to the art and advertising trades until color was added to the coatings in the early 1950s and sales grew quickly with endless boundaries. Today, Krylon is known as an industry leader in product innovation, package design, project inspiration and color. Our range of products expands beyond the home and into your backyard with multi-purpose, plastic, specialty, rust preventative, brush-on and craft products. To date, Krylon continues to be an industry leader providing high-quality products, innovation, and inspiration through color, packaging design and project ideas.
