PPG Offers Paper Color Samples for Select Duranar Coatings

PPG Industries’ coil and building products group is now offering 10-by-10-inch paper color samples of 10 Duranar coatings through www.requestppg.com, its on-demand sample- and literature-ordering portal.

Sharon Bird, PPG marketing communications manager, industrial coatings, said the new paper cards are designed to satisfy requests from architects and designers for large color samples that more closely approximate actual metal panel sizes.

“We are always seeking new ways to make it easier for building professionals and their customers to visualize how coatings will look on a finished project,” Bird explained. “The new 10-by-10-inch color samples provide a cost-effective way to do so.”

PPG currently offers 10 of the most popular Duranar coatings colors in the 10-by-10-inch paper format. They are Black, Bone White, Bright White, Colonial White, Champagne Gold, Pewter, Silver, Silversmith, Silver Storm and Steel-City Silver. Architects and designers may also select from 90 color samples on 3-by-3-inch metal panels.

PPG also publishes the Building Products Coil Coatings Color Guide, an eight-page booklet with 100 coatings color chips categorized by product brand, including Duranar, Duranar Ultra-Cool, Duranar Vari-Cool, DuraForm, DuraStar, Environ and Plasticron coatings.

Duranar coatings are formulated with a proprietary combination of resins, pigments and solvents.
