PROFILE |
 |
No matter how you paint it, PPG Industries ranks as a leader in the coatings business. The company also makes glass and specialty chemicals. Coatings -- such as paints, stains, and sealants that help protect surfaces -- account for more than half of sales. PPG also produces and distributes glass products such as car windshields, flat glass for buildings, and continuous-strand fiberglass. Glass accounts for nearly 30% of sales. PPG's chemicals segment makes chlor-alkali chemicals and supplies specialty chemicals. PPG operates more than 110 manufacturing facilities in 22 countries. The company also operates about 250 paint retail centers in the southeastern US.
