Tautachrome, Inc. (OTCMKTS:TTCM) is a specialty materials company focused on the development and commercialization of friction‐control and adhesion coatings for a variety of industrial and consumer applications. The company’s proprietary technology utilizes micro‐textured surface films designed to enhance grip, reduce wear and improve safety in service environments ranging from athletic equipment to industrial tooling. Headquartered in Southern California, Tautachrome maintains research and production facilities in both North America and Europe, allowing it to serve a global customer base across the United States, Europe and select markets in Asia.
At the core of Tautachrome’s product portfolio is its Surefoot™ line of coatings, originally developed for clipless bicycle pedals to aid cyclists in maintaining secure contact through varying terrain and riding conditions. Since its introduction, Surefoot™ technology has been adapted for applications in power tools, medical devices, smartphone screen protectors and other end uses where controlled friction is critical. In addition to off-the-shelf offerings, the company provides custom formulation services and licensing agreements to equipment manufacturers seeking to integrate its coatings directly into their production processes.
Founded in 1985, Tautachrome began as a small research venture exploring novel ways to bond polymer films to metal substrates. Early collaborations with university materials science departments helped refine its surface‐patterning processes, and the company transitioned to public markets in the late 1990s. Over the ensuing decades, Tautachrome has expanded its R&D capabilities to include in-house testing laboratories and pilot‐scale coating lines, enabling accelerated product development cycles and greater control over quality assurance protocols.
Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Robert P. Johnson, Tautachrome’s management team includes Chief Financial Officer Maria L. Rivera and Director of R&D Dr. Susan M. Lee, all of whom bring extensive experience in specialty coatings and industrial manufacturing. The board of directors oversees strategic partnerships and global expansion efforts, while a growing sales network in Europe and Asia has helped position the company for broader commercial uptake. Tautachrome continues to invest in innovation aimed at new markets, including advanced automotive components and high-performance industrial adhesives.
