PPG is one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of industrial coatings. Our solutions and expertise are trusted by customers from nearly every region and across industries to protect their products and their brands.

As one of the few global companies offering solutions in every major coating technology, PPG works to ensure that each protective layer—pretreatment, electrocoat and liquid or powder topcoats—is compatible and optimized for the best corrosion resistance and longer asset life. 

Our comprehensive coatings systems include PPG ZIRCOBOND® zirconium-based pretreatment, PPG POWERCRON® 10X™ electrocoat, our 10th generation, high-edge cationic epoxy electrocoat with an expanded bake window, and advanced liquid topcoats and powder coatings including PPG ENVIROCRON® EXTREME PROTECTION EDGE powder and PPG ENVIROCRON® HTE powder that are engineered to provide uniform coverage for complex parts and sharp edges.

Demonstrating our commitment to innovation, PPG recently introduced the PPG PRIMERON™ powder primer portfolio, featuring high corrosion-resistant solutions. This series includes PPG PRIMERON OPTIMAL zinc epoxy powder primer, which meets ISO C5 corrosivity specifications yet has a lower specific gravity (2.0 vs. 3.6) than standard zinc-rich primers, making it less dense and easier to apply.

Beyond industrial coatings, our Coatings Services business provides expert in-house and outsourced coating application support and equipment design services. Additionally, PPG VERSALON™ offers locally distributed products and specialized services for light industrial manufacturers.

Every PPG solution is backed by our renowned technical service and extensive color capabilities.
