PPG Industries’ building products-exterior coatings group announced that Durapaint Industries Limited, Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, has been accredited as a member of the PPG CAP Certified Applicator Program (PPG/CAP) group. Durapaint Industries is now part of a select network of commercial coating applicators certified by PPG to apply high-performance DURANAR fluoropolymer coatings to aluminum architectural components. “We are proud to become a PPG CAP Certified Applicator Program member,” said Elio Zarlenga, president, Durapaint Industries. “This certification emphasizes our commitment to our customers and increases our ability to deliver high-quality products, service and expertise.” Brian Knapp, PPG director, coil and building products, said PPG is equally pleased to welcome Durapaint Industries to the PPG/CAP group. “One reason we enjoy working with Durapaint Industries is their dedication to continually reinvesting in their products, people and processes.
