We are honored to have received the 2024 Supplier Award in the Innovation and Technology category from Randoncorp. The award recognizes a project that replaced the product used in powder coating lines with an environmentally sustainable, low-cure alternative containing a percentage of pre-industrial recycled plastic in its composition. "Powder coatings are one of our company's major investments and main areas of focus," said Marizeth Pádua de Carvalho, our general manager, Latin America South, and global head of strategic marketing for Industrial Coatings. "This recognition reflects the strength of our partnership with customers and the joint efforts towards our sustainability goals.” #PPGproud #ProtectandBeautify

Our investments alongside the PPG Foundation in workforce development initiatives create pathways between training and career opportunities in manufacturing and coatings application for students. Melanie Thomas, now a national account specialist for our Automotive Refinish business, excelled in collision repair in school, with her achievements being recognized with two scholarships from the Collision Repair Education Foundation (CREF). The PPG Foundation has been a steadfast partner of the CREF, supporting initiatives that prepare students for careers in the skilled trades. Thomas shared that the scholarships she received from CREF were instrumental in allowing her to pursue her passion for the automotive industry. "The same PPG territory managers and CREF members who were there when I was a student are now those that I get to work with side by side, and it's been such a great experience that I hope many more students – and future people in the collision/refinish industry – get to experience as well,” said Thomas. Her journey is a shining example of living The PPG Way, embodying our commitment to innovation, sustainability and excellence. Learn more: https://bit.ly/40jdZGV #PPGproud #ProtectandBeautify

Today is Mole Day, the unofficial holiday for chemistry enthusiasts to celebrate the mighty mole.

Our global team of chemists use moles every day to innovate and create products that help further our purpose to protect and beautify the world. #MoleDay #NationalChemistryWeek #ProtectandBeautify

Sustainability is an integral part of our purpose to protect and beautify the world, and we are committed to providing environmental sustainability education to the next generation. #ProtectandBeautify #PPGproud #Sustainability

When natural disasters affect our communities, our commitment to protect and beautify the world becomes even more applicable. Alongside the PPG Foundation, we are donating to the emergency relief and recovery efforts following significant flooding in several areas in Europe and catastrophic hurricanes in the United States where we have employees and operations. “Communities impacted by hurricanes and extreme flooding will face the effects, damages and rebuilding for months and years to come,” said Malesia Dunn, our executive director, PPG Foundation and corporate global social responsibility. “In times like these, PPG steps into communities where we have a presence to support our neighbors and serve those in need through financial contributions.” In Europe, our donations will support relief organizations after major flooding in the northeastern Moravian-Silesian region of Czechia and southwest Poland. In the U.S., our donation will support the efforts of the American Red Cross following Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. Our employees are also supporting local communities as part of relief efforts by collecting essential supplies and volunteering.
