PPG will exhibit its broad portfolio of factory-applied primers, finishes and stains at the 2017 North American Wholesale Lumber Association (NAWLA) Traders Market.  The annual conference will be held at the Hyatt Regency Chicago, November 8-10.

PPG will showcase machine-applied coatings that deliver significant advantages over coatings applied in the field, including the ability to coat every edge, angle and groove to ensure thorough performance for every coated piece.  Products on display will include PPG MACHINECOAT exterior finish coatings for wood substrates and PPG DURACOLOR exterior finish coatings for fiber cement and composite substrates.

Machinecoat and Machinecoat Plus exterior finishes offer excellent color retention and strong adhesion, according to the company.  They are available as solid colors or semi-transparent coatings.

Duracolor coatings are specifically designed for machine applicators.  They are engineered to protect against harsh exterior exposure and ultraviolet degradation and are formulated to deliver excellent adhesion, color retention and film flexibility. 

For more than 90 years, PPG has been a pioneer in quality, innovation and performance for machine applicators who seek consistent protection and color integrity.  The company’s market-proven systems include prefinished coatings engineered with advanced technology and backed by industry-leading research, development and technical teams.

The 2017 NAWLA Traders Market is the only show focused almost exclusively on the lumber supply chain, showcasing manufacturers of lumber and lumber-related products and attracting nearly 1,600 attendees.  Covering three days of educational sessions, networking and product introductions, the conference will offer attendees access to the lumber industry’s latest technical updates and products.
