About the IUPAT
International Union of Painters and Allied Trades®
IUPAT proudly represents and fights for 140,000 workers in the finishing trades across the United States and Canada. We represent dozens of trades, primarily industrial painters, commercial and decorative painters, drywall finishers, glaziers and glass workers, sign and display workers, trade show workers, floor covering installers, and many more successful careers in the construction industry and public sector.
We are an organizing, fighting union that gives workers the power to have strength in the workplace. We work every day to ensure all of our members can live with dignity, stability, and security.
A membership with the IUPAT supports the hope that we can make things better for ourselves, our families, our trades, and our countries.
