About us
We began serving the collision repair industry in Florida 1968. The original company was an independent paint distributor of several major manufacturers including DuPont, BASF, and Sherwin-Williams. After a successful sale of the company to a Fortune 500 company in 1986, Craig Howell started Florida Filtration & Spray Booth Services, Inc. in 1992 as a paint booth service and maintenance business serving the customers he had developed relationships with in the automotive, marine, and industrial paint business.
In 1999
Craig acquired the paint booth equipment line of then Team Blowtherm and later the fully merged equipment manufacturer Global Finishing Solutions. He and his staff have grown Florida Filtration & Spray Booth Services, Inc. into one of the leading full service paint booth distributors in Florida.

Our customers include large and small body shops, automotive dealerships, industrial applications in the furniture industry, and marine applications. As a normal part of their service, Florida Filtration & Spray Booth Services, Inc. specializes in “turn key” installations, which includes the complex permitting processes of the different municipalities.
