| History and Business of Company (this information may include date of incorporation) | |
|
PPG Industries, Inc., incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1883, is comprised of three basic business segments: coatings, glass and chemicals. Within these business segments, PPG has followed a program of directing its resources of people, capital and technology into selected areas to build upon positions of leadership. Areas in which resources have been focused are industrial, aerospace, packaging, architectural, automotive original and refinish coatings; flat glass, automotive original and replacement glass, and continuous-strand fiber glass; and chlor-alkali and specialty chemicals. Each of the businesses in which PPG is engaged is highly competitive. However, the diversification of product lines and worldwide markets served tend to minimize the impact on PPG's total sales and earnings of changes in demand for a particular product line or in a particular geographic area. | |
