PPG has showcased its Aerospace business to analysts in a deep-dive session aimed at highlighting how innovation is driving growth across one of its most established divisions.
The company underscored the nearly 100-year legacy of its Aerospace unit, which has evolved into a global leader in transparencies, coatings, and sealants serving commercial aviation, military, and general aviation customers.
At the center of the presentation was a clear message: growth is being driven by differentiation, innovation, and long-term investment.
PPG emphasized three core themes. First, differentiated customer value through a wide portfolio of highly specialized, qualified products and services. Second, innovation as a strategic advantage—ranging from advanced chemistries “inside the can” to application-transforming solutions “outside the can” that change how customers use its products.
Third, long-term expansion through continued investment in capacity and technology to meet sustained aerospace demand.
The company also highlighted several flagship innovations, including PPG PRC Seal Caps, designed to improve productivity and efficiency in aircraft manufacturing; PPG ARETM 3D Printed Sealants, which bring additive manufacturing into sealant application to improve precision and reduce waste; and PPG AEROCRON Electrocoat Primer, a chrome-free primer developed specifically for aerospace use.
“Our Aerospace deep dive was a tremendous opportunity to highlight the business that is powering PPG's organic growth,” said Sam Millikin, PPG senior vice president, Global Aerospace. “We were thrilled to share with our analyst community the strategy, technology offerings, and customer solutions that make PPG’s Aerospace business unique.”
Headquartered in Pittsburgh, PPG operates in more than 50 countries and reported $15.9 billion in net sales in 2025. The company serves customers across construction, consumer goods, industrial, transportation, and aftermarket segments.
The Aerospace division remains a key pillar in PPG’s push to strengthen organic growth through advanced materials, application innovation, and long-term industry partnerships.
