[title] => PPG Completes COLORFUL COMMUNITIES Project at Rachel Carson Homestead in Springdale
[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-completes-colorful-communities-project-at-rachel-carson-homestead-in-springdale
[body] => PPG announced the completion of a COLORFUL COMMUNITIES project in Springdale that helped revitalize the Rachel Carson Homestead. The Colorful Communities program provides PPG volunteers and paint products along with financial contributions to bring color and vitality to communities where the company operates around the world, such as in Springdale, where PPG has an industrial coatings manufacturing and research and development facility.
The project brought together more than 24 PPG volunteers, who spent the day revitalizing a wooden building that will be used as classroom space on the property. PPG provided more than 12 gallons of product to assist with the project, including FLOOD Pro Series deck cleaner, DEFT water-based polyurethane and Flood Pro Series transparent finish paint products.
The Rachel Carson Homestead is the birthplace of its namesake, Rachel Carson, who is recognized worldwide as the founder of the modern environmental movement. Her legacy includes building upon an inborn sense of wonder about the natural world and her courageous and visionary awareness of environmental impact. Visitors from around the world come to visit her historic home site and learn about her life and environmental ethics.
Volunteers painted the interior and exterior of the facility’s classroom with stains and sealants to not only enhance the appearance of the wooden structure but also protect it from environmental elements. The community-donated classroom space will also be available for “Lunch & Learns” for many organizations and students in the area.
“As members of the Springdale and greater Pittsburgh community, we feel it is important to give back in any way we can,” said Rodolfo Ramirez, PPG director, sales and strategic segments, industrial coatings, North America. “Participating in the protection and beautification of the Rachel Carson Homestead allows us to contribute to the preservation of a local legacy and promote ongoing education.”

[title] => PPG Continues Sponsorship for Omega European Masters Golf Championship
[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-continues-sponsorship-for-omega-european-masters-golf-championship
[body] => PPG will continue its sponsorship for the Omega European Masters Golf Championship, for the second year running. Under the agreement, PPG will have branding rights for the entire Swiss stop on the professional men’s golf European tour, taking place from September 6 to 9, 2018 on the Crans-sur-Sierre Club golf course in Crans-Montana.
The Omega European Masters is one of the most prestigious golf competitions played on the European tour circuit. PPG’s continued sponsorship is a symbol of its close association with the sport which has seen the brand play a leading role in the production of coatings for golf balls.
The relationship has been instrumental in satisfying golfers’ demand for distance and accuracy to achieve the perfect finish.
“PPG and golf have a long history. For example, PPG partners with leading golf ball manufacturers such as Acushnet, maker of Titleist and supplies innovative coatings that help golfers achieve longer distance and better accuracy,” said Jean-Marie Greindl, SVP global architectural coatings and president, PPG Europe, Middle East and Africa.
We’re very excited to continue PPG’s support for the Omega European Masters. It is such a unique event, and platform to connect with our customers in a dynamic environment and to showcase how PPG is innovating to protect and enhance the world of golf and beyond.”
Yves Mittaz, Tournament Director at Omega European Masters Golf organization, said, “PPG has an association with golf which makes the sponsorship a natural fit. The brand has a forward-thinking approach and has been instrumental in improving the technical standard of golf. We look forward to working closely together.”
During the event, as part of this partnership, PPG will have a branded presence in the hospitality and spectator village. PPG will also be playing host to an Innovation Summit Day on Thursday, September 6 that will showcase how cutting-edge technology in paints and coatings is driving forward innovations in some the world’s leading sectors and industries, as demonstrated through its partnership with Omega European Masters Golf Tournament.

[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-foundation-invests-more-than-62000-in-michigan-programs
[body] => PPG announced that the PPG Foundation recently invested more than $62,000 to support two educational programs in Michigan. The grants were made on behalf of PPG’s automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) coatings facility in Troy.
The PPG Foundation provided $60,000 for SAE International’s award-winning A WORLD IN MOTION® science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program, which reaches nearly 2,000 students throughout Detroit, Michigan, and Toronto, Ontario. The program includes training teachers to increase their knowledge of, and comfort in, teaching science, technology and math, as well as providing schools with SAE’s classroom-based, hands-on STEM curriculum and materials.
A $2,500 grant to Kettering University will support the Young Innovators program, where students in fourth through sixth grades create original inventions to solve perplexing problems and meet perceived personal or community needs.
“Today’s youth are the future of the automotive industry, and PPG is proud to support programs that engage and encourage these young people to explore STEM-related fields that are important for advanced manufacturing,” said Diane Kappas, PPG vice president-elect, Automotive OEM Coatings, Americas.
PPG and the PPG Foundation aim to bring color and brightness to PPG communities around the world. We invested more than $10.5 million in 2017, supporting hundreds of community organizations across 29 countries. By investing in educational opportunities, we help grow today’s skilled workforce and develop tomorrow’s innovators in fields related to coatings and manufacturing. Plus, we empower PPG employees to multiply their impact for causes that are important to them by supporting their volunteer efforts and charitable giving. Learn more at www.ppgcommunities.com.

[title] => PPG Scientist Discusses Recent Advances in Automotive Battery Binders, Coatings
[short_title] =>
[summary] => During the Battery Show North America 2018.
[slug] => ppg-scientist-discusses-recent-advances-in-automotive-battery-binders-coatings
[body] => PPG announced that one of its leading scientists for energy storage solutions will discuss recent advances in electrode binders and coatings for automotive lithium-ion batteries during The Battery Show North America 2018, which will be held Sept. 11-13 in Novi, Michigan.
Dr. Stuart Hellring, PPG senior research and development scientist, will present the company’s recent success in developing a cost-effective cathode binder that eliminates the use of the solvent N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP). The new, market-ready binder also helps streamline formulation and application processes, reducing mixing times by up to 90 percent, and contributes to longer battery cycle life. NMP, which is widely used in electrode manufacturing, has been identified as a reproductive hazard by several global regulatory agencies.
“PPG is pioneering the development of innovative coatings and related technologies that will help battery and vehicle manufacturers increase the range and performance of electric powertrains while meeting strict new environmental, health and safety standards,” said Ranju Arya, PPG senior business director, mobility.
The presentation will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 13, in the Onyx Ballroom of the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi. Show attendees are also encouraged to visit the PPG booth (1913) in the exhibit hall.

[title] => PPG Completes COLORFUL COMMUNITIES Project at Rachel Carson Homestead in Springdale
[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-completes-colorful-communities-project-at-rachel-carson-homestead-in-springdale
[body] => PPG announced the completion of a COLORFUL COMMUNITIES project in Springdale that helped revitalize the Rachel Carson Homestead. The Colorful Communities program provides PPG volunteers and paint products along with financial contributions to bring color and vitality to communities where the company operates around the world, such as in Springdale, where PPG has an industrial coatings manufacturing and research and development facility.
The project brought together more than 24 PPG volunteers, who spent the day revitalizing a wooden building that will be used as classroom space on the property. PPG provided more than 12 gallons of product to assist with the project, including FLOOD Pro Series deck cleaner, DEFT water-based polyurethane and Flood Pro Series transparent finish paint products.
The Rachel Carson Homestead is the birthplace of its namesake, Rachel Carson, who is recognized worldwide as the founder of the modern environmental movement. Her legacy includes building upon an inborn sense of wonder about the natural world and her courageous and visionary awareness of environmental impact. Visitors from around the world come to visit her historic home site and learn about her life and environmental ethics.
Volunteers painted the interior and exterior of the facility’s classroom with stains and sealants to not only enhance the appearance of the wooden structure but also protect it from environmental elements. The community-donated classroom space will also be available for “Lunch & Learns” for many organizations and students in the area.
“As members of the Springdale and greater Pittsburgh community, we feel it is important to give back in any way we can,” said Rodolfo Ramirez, PPG director, sales and strategic segments, industrial coatings, North America. “Participating in the protection and beautification of the Rachel Carson Homestead allows us to contribute to the preservation of a local legacy and promote ongoing education.”

[title] => PPG Continues Sponsorship for Omega European Masters Golf Championship
[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-continues-sponsorship-for-omega-european-masters-golf-championship
[body] => PPG will continue its sponsorship for the Omega European Masters Golf Championship, for the second year running. Under the agreement, PPG will have branding rights for the entire Swiss stop on the professional men’s golf European tour, taking place from September 6 to 9, 2018 on the Crans-sur-Sierre Club golf course in Crans-Montana.
The Omega European Masters is one of the most prestigious golf competitions played on the European tour circuit. PPG’s continued sponsorship is a symbol of its close association with the sport which has seen the brand play a leading role in the production of coatings for golf balls.
The relationship has been instrumental in satisfying golfers’ demand for distance and accuracy to achieve the perfect finish.
“PPG and golf have a long history. For example, PPG partners with leading golf ball manufacturers such as Acushnet, maker of Titleist and supplies innovative coatings that help golfers achieve longer distance and better accuracy,” said Jean-Marie Greindl, SVP global architectural coatings and president, PPG Europe, Middle East and Africa.
We’re very excited to continue PPG’s support for the Omega European Masters. It is such a unique event, and platform to connect with our customers in a dynamic environment and to showcase how PPG is innovating to protect and enhance the world of golf and beyond.”
Yves Mittaz, Tournament Director at Omega European Masters Golf organization, said, “PPG has an association with golf which makes the sponsorship a natural fit. The brand has a forward-thinking approach and has been instrumental in improving the technical standard of golf. We look forward to working closely together.”
During the event, as part of this partnership, PPG will have a branded presence in the hospitality and spectator village. PPG will also be playing host to an Innovation Summit Day on Thursday, September 6 that will showcase how cutting-edge technology in paints and coatings is driving forward innovations in some the world’s leading sectors and industries, as demonstrated through its partnership with Omega European Masters Golf Tournament.

[title] => PPG Foundation Invests More Than $62,000 in Michigan Programs
[short_title] =>
[summary] =>
[slug] => ppg-foundation-invests-more-than-62000-in-michigan-programs
[body] => PPG announced that the PPG Foundation recently invested more than $62,000 to support two educational programs in Michigan. The grants were made on behalf of PPG’s automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) coatings facility in Troy.
The PPG Foundation provided $60,000 for SAE International’s award-winning A WORLD IN MOTION® science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program, which reaches nearly 2,000 students throughout Detroit, Michigan, and Toronto, Ontario. The program includes training teachers to increase their knowledge of, and comfort in, teaching science, technology and math, as well as providing schools with SAE’s classroom-based, hands-on STEM curriculum and materials.
A $2,500 grant to Kettering University will support the Young Innovators program, where students in fourth through sixth grades create original inventions to solve perplexing problems and meet perceived personal or community needs.
“Today’s youth are the future of the automotive industry, and PPG is proud to support programs that engage and encourage these young people to explore STEM-related fields that are important for advanced manufacturing,” said Diane Kappas, PPG vice president-elect, Automotive OEM Coatings, Americas.
PPG and the PPG Foundation aim to bring color and brightness to PPG communities around the world. We invested more than $10.5 million in 2017, supporting hundreds of community organizations across 29 countries. By investing in educational opportunities, we help grow today’s skilled workforce and develop tomorrow’s innovators in fields related to coatings and manufacturing. Plus, we empower PPG employees to multiply their impact for causes that are important to them by supporting their volunteer efforts and charitable giving. Learn more at www.ppgcommunities.com.

[title] => PPG Scientist Discusses Recent Advances in Automotive Battery Binders, Coatings
[short_title] =>
[summary] => During the Battery Show North America 2018.
[slug] => ppg-scientist-discusses-recent-advances-in-automotive-battery-binders-coatings
[body] => PPG announced that one of its leading scientists for energy storage solutions will discuss recent advances in electrode binders and coatings for automotive lithium-ion batteries during The Battery Show North America 2018, which will be held Sept. 11-13 in Novi, Michigan.
Dr. Stuart Hellring, PPG senior research and development scientist, will present the company’s recent success in developing a cost-effective cathode binder that eliminates the use of the solvent N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP). The new, market-ready binder also helps streamline formulation and application processes, reducing mixing times by up to 90 percent, and contributes to longer battery cycle life. NMP, which is widely used in electrode manufacturing, has been identified as a reproductive hazard by several global regulatory agencies.
“PPG is pioneering the development of innovative coatings and related technologies that will help battery and vehicle manufacturers increase the range and performance of electric powertrains while meeting strict new environmental, health and safety standards,” said Ranju Arya, PPG senior business director, mobility.
The presentation will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 13, in the Onyx Ballroom of the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi. Show attendees are also encouraged to visit the PPG booth (1913) in the exhibit hall.
