In a move to further refine its focus on paint products, PPG today announced that it has completed the sale of its flat glass manufacturing and glass coatings operations to Vitro S.A.B. de C.V., a leading producer of flat glass and specialty products.
The sale includes PPG’s entire flat glass manufacturing and glass coatings operations, including production sites located in Fresno, California; Salem, Oregon; Carlisle, Pennsylvania; and Wichita Falls, Texas; four distribution/fabrication facilities located across Canada; and a research-and-development center located in Harmar, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh. The business manufactures glass that is fabricated into products used primarily in commercial and residential construction.
