What Coveright does

Coveright S.L. is a Spanish specialty manufacturer of resin-impregnated paper films, headquartered at a single integrated facility in Martorelles, Barcelona, and operating continuously since 1974. The company's product range includes melamine films, overlays, decorative films, barrier films, moldable films, glue films, formwork/shuttering films, facade films, high grammage TUF films, melamine cores, postformable films, and antibacterial products. These products serve five industrial verticals: furniture, construction, flooring/parquet, wall covering, and food-contact applications, with end-performance attributes spanning chemical, mechanical, water, fire, UV, humidity, and bacteriological resistance. The company reports global reach and serves international clients under the Coveright Surfaces brand.

The company's underlying technology is paper impregnation using proprietary resins that it formulates and manufactures in-house at the Martorelles site. This in-house resin capability, combined with an automated mixing station installed in 1996 and an in-house R&D laboratory that runs client-collaborative projects, pilot impregnations, and on-site monitoring, allows Coveright to adapt formulations to each client's specific pressing conditions (press type, plates, pressure, temperature, pressing time) and to qualify products under standards such as AC4/AC5 for flooring. Production runs 24/7, and the asset holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications alongside PEFC and FSC Chain of Custody certifications for sustainable paper sourcing.

Coveright operates a sales-led B2B model, engaging directly with industrial clients across its five verticals via customized, quote-based pricing with no public disclosure. The company has been privately held since 2011 under Spanish private equity firm Sherpa Capital Gestión, and in 2023 it was integrated into the BRAND CORNER – PENTA SOLUTIONS industrial group. With 51-100 employees and a single production site, Coveright is a niche specialty industrial materials business rather than a high-volume commodity supplier.
