Appliance
For more than 50 years, PPG has provided major commercial and household appliance manufacturers
with protective coatings that add durability, color and style to their residential and commercial equipment.
With a comprehensive range of water- and solvent-based liquid appliance coatings, PPG provides the right
formulations to ensure color harmony, application efficiency and long-lasting resiliency.
Our color stylists and designers work to develop color palettes and finishes that are the forefront of the latest
trends, while our engineers develop innovations that deliver hardness and flexibility, plus excellent resistance
to stains, scratches, chemicals and corrosion.
