Coatings World: What is your new role at PPG?
Knavish: I was appointed as PPG’s senior vice president, architectural coatings, and president, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), in January 2019. Prior to my current role, I served as senior vice president, industrial coatings since 2017.
A 32-year veteran of PPG, I joined the company in flat glass engineering in 1987, based at the global headquarters in Pittsburgh. I advanced through various roles in engineering, technical services, operations and supply chain, and am proud to say that I’ve served in 10 PPG businesses around the world: three glass businesses (now divested), architectural, automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM), automotive refinish, protective and marine coatings, packaging and industrial coatings, as well as coatings services.
