PPG Celebrated as One of the World's Best Companies

This recognition underscores PPG’s commitment to excellence as a global leader in paints, coatings, and specialty materials. The honor acknowledges companies that innovate and maintain a strong corporate strategy to shape the future.
Key Factors Leading to This Recognition
The recognition by TIME Magazine is supported by thorough evaluations performed by Statista, a well-respected statistics firm. Their stringent selection process examines companies based on three main criteria:
Employee Satisfaction
A survey conducted in over 50 countries gathered insights from around 170,000 participants. This evaluation considered both direct and indirect recommendations of companies, as well as factors like company image, workplace atmosphere, working conditions, salaries, and equality—all derived from verified employee feedback.
Revenue Growth
To qualify, companies needed to show a minimum revenue of $100 million in the year before being recognized and demonstrate positive revenue growth between 2021 and 2023. This criterion highlights the financial stability and growth trajectory of the honored companies.
Sustainability Initiatives
A strong commitment to sustainability is essential for recognition. Companies were reviewed based on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data from Statista’s dedicated ESG database, combined with additional focused research. PPG’s commitment to sustainability principles positions it among industry leaders.
