PPG announced a global price increase of up to 20% across its paints, coatings, and specialty products portfolio, citing rising input costs.
The company said recent volatility in petrochemical, energy, and transportation markets has driven higher expenses for raw materials, logistics, and packaging. The price adjustments are being implemented on a customer-by-customer basis, depending on existing contracts and regional conditions.
PPG noted that some product categories and regions may see even higher increases if needed to offset cost inflation, with the possibility of further adjustments if market pressures persist.
The company emphasized that the move is aimed at ensuring supply continuity and maintaining service levels, as it navigates ongoing cost challenges across its global operations.
