Our Story

Built on the
Shop Floor

Tuna Powder Coating Inc. is a family-owned industrial finishing shop serving manufacturers and fabricators across South Florida. We run a tight operation — hands-on, accountable, and obsessed with quality from the first blast to the final cure.

Who We Are

South Florida's Industrial
Coating Partner

Tuna Powder Coating Inc. was founded with a simple mission: deliver industrial-grade powder coating finishes that manufacturers and fabricators can actually rely on. No shortcuts. No excuses. Just consistent, durable work done right.

We operate out of Medley, Florida, serving clients across South Florida and beyond. Our shop is equipped with professional-grade electrostatic application systems, precision cure ovens, and a full surface preparation line — everything needed to handle both one-off prototype runs and high-volume OEM production.

What sets us apart isn't just the equipment — it's the accountability. Jose and Heisy run the operation personally. Every job is tracked, every finish is inspected, and every client gets a direct line to the people doing the work.
