Read MoreHide Full Article
PPG Industries’ (PPG - Free Report) packaging coatings business will be displaying at the Aerosol and Dispensing Forum in New York City from Sep 13−14.
PPG Industries will exhibit its new generation packaging coatings products at the event while an expert from the company will highlight the impact of regulatory changes on the requirements of packaging makers and brand owners for metal packaging coatings.
An expert from PPG Industries, Robyn McMillan, global segment manager, monobloc aerosol and tube coatings, will deliver a presentation on the addition of Bisphenol A (BPA) to the California Proposition 65 list in the U.S., and this regulation change’s effect on the requirements of customers for packaging coatings. McMillan will also discuss the company’s products and technologies which can assist aluminum aerosol and tube packaging manufacturers and brands to abide by the new regulatory requirements.
PPG Industries will also place emphasis on its products’ ability to reduce environmental impact. It will feature coatings with higher solid content and lower volatile organic compound (“VOC”). The product range will include Bisphenol A non-intent internal and external coatings, N Methyl 2 pyrrolidone-free for monobloc internal liners and benzophenone-free ultraviolet-cure (UV-cure) varnishes used on plastic tubes. The company will also be displaying its entire range of Bisphenol A non-intent external basecoats and over-varnishes that provide a full BPA-NI system for monobloc aerosol and bottle can packages.
PPG Industries’ shares fell 4.2% to close at $100.86 last Friday.
PPG Industries’ adjusted earnings of $1.85 per share for the second quarter of 2016 improved 10.8% year over year. Sales in the quarter were fairly consistent with the prior-year quarter, at $4,064 million. While earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate, sales lagged the same. The bottom line was primarily boosted by the successful commercialization of innovative products, strong business and cost management as well as earnings-accretive cash deployment.
The industrial coatings segment’s sales in the second quarter rose 2.3% year over year to $1.44 billion on higher volumes. New technology in packaging coatings drove sales volume by mid-high single digits in every region. Earnings in the segment increased 12.3% year over year to $292 million, largely driven by higher income leverage from growth in sales volume and lower costs from restructuring and manufacturing cost efficiencies as well as acquisition-related income.
PPG Industries currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
