PPG adds packaging capabilities at site in France

17 July 2014

PPG Industries has begun operation of a new packaging unit installed at its Gonfreville, France, coatings plant and aerospace application support centre. With the new equipment, PPG is able to offer customers in aerospace, automotive, rail, electronics and general industrial markets in South Europe the benefits of proprietary Semco packaging and application systems.

As part of the Gonfreville operations, the repackaging unit meets quality qualifications such as ISO 9001 and EN 9100 standards. In addition, coatings products from PPG’s recently acquired Deft Incorporated portfolio have been integrated into the repackaging activity at Gonfreville for European customers.
