PPG announced that it will showcase its latest metal finishing innovations at the FABTECH 2026 sheet metal manufacturing trade show, taking place Oct. 21-23 in Las Vegas. PPG’s solutions offer manufacturers new ways to increase efficiency, improve corrosion protection and reduce process complexity.
Featured products include PPG AQUACRON® Waterborne Shop Primers (WSP) for structural steel, delivering rapid cure, smooth aesthetics, low* VOCs and reliable performance across climates, and PPG ENVIROCRON® Extreme Protection Edge Plus powder coatings, which offer robust corrosion protection on hard-to-coat sharp edges plus an enhanced, smoother finish than PPG’s first-generation high-edge formulation.
“PPG is focused on helping customers protect critical assets, extend product lifespan and achieve high-quality finishes,” said Justin Epler, PPG vice president, industrial coatings Americas. “We deliver high-performance coatings that protect assets and extend their usability – our latest innovations offer enhanced durability and smooth finishes, while meeting demanding performance requirements.”
Visitors to the exhibit (booth #S10005) can connect with PPG representatives to learn about the company’s new coating solutions, including pretreatment, electrocoat, liquid and powder product technologies:
