We are committed to transparent reporting on our sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) approach and performance.

PPG recognizes the importance of clear, accurate reporting on the ways that we manage ESG risks, act on opportunities and understand the impacts of our business on our stakeholders. We aim to consistently advance our disclosure as we improve our approach to managing ESG issues.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Chemical Industry Standard and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. The sustainability approach described in this report supports progress against the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Relevant indices are available on PPG.com.

Unless otherwise noted, the information and data contained in this report cover all employees, PPG locations and joint ventures where we maintain at least 50% ownership. Monetary figures are U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

This report, inclusive of the 2023 reporting year, includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding our sustainability; suppliers; culture; diversity, equity and inclusion; community engagement; and related goals, commitments and strategies. These statements involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual future results, including the achievement of our targets, goals or commitments, could differ materially from our projected results as the result of changes in circumstances, assumptions not being realized, or other risks, uncertainties and factors, including due to the risks and uncertainties that are discussed in our most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and subsequent filings. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or information, which speak as of the date of this report.

In 2023, we again engaged Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance to provide limited assurance on our scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions data. We are confident our internal processes provide sufficient oversight regarding the accuracy of all other information we present, and we continue to explore assurance options to provide independent verification of our disclosure as expectations evolve.
