TEAM PPG PPG AIRCRAFT WINDOW INNOVATION PPG has developed breakthrough technology for aircraft windows that significantly blocks harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation and high-energy visible (HEV) light to help protect air crews, passengers and aircraft interiors from solar radiation. PPG windows with PPG SOLARON BLUE PROTECTION ™ UV+ blocking technology block 99% of UVA and UVB radiation and more than 50% of HEV (blue) light. PPG's COLORFUL COMMUNITIES ® program has received the 2019 Gold Halo Award in the Employee Engagement (Group Volunteering) category from Engage for Good. The Halo Awards are among North America's highest honors for corporate social initiatives and cause marketing, showcasing successful consumer engagement and employee engagement efforts. The Colorful Communities program is PPG's signature initiative for supporting communities and aims to protect and beautify the neighborhoods where PPG operates around the world. Through the program, PPG's committed volunteers contribute their time and PPG paint products to help transform community assets—from painting classrooms to bringing color to a maternity ward and redesigning a playground. Since 2015, PPG has completed more than 200 Colorful Communities projects, impacting more than 5.2 million people in 30 countries. Roger Penske, our long-time customer and racing partner, has been named to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
