International. PPG said it is raising prices by an average of 6 percent on all of its industrial coating technologies in North America.
The change takes effect Nov. 1, or as permitted by contract, and applies to all industrial coating end-use segments.
Significant increases in raw material and labor costs have led to the need for price adjustments, according to Kevin Braun, PPG's vice president of industrial coatings in the Americas.
"While PPG continues to look for ways to respond to cost increases through more efficient operations, cost control measures have not sufficiently offset rising costs in the supply chain," Braun said. "We remain committed to providing our customers with the latest coatings and innovative technologies, while providing best-in-class sales and technical services."
Sales representatives will communicate the details of price increases to their customers for all products affected, by PPG.
