PPG Units `Best of Best' for Auto Coatings & GlassDEARBORN, Mich., Aug. 13 -- PPG Industries last night received two Quest for Excellence awards from Automotive Industries (AI) magazine as "best of the best" among automotive coatings and glass suppliers. AI is a leading auto manufacturing industry news magazine. Readers involved in design, engineering, manufacturing, purchasing and management rated their suppliers for quality, price, delivery, service and innovation. Scores for what AI terms the automotive equivalent of the Oscar awards in the motion picture industry were tabulated by the Autofacts division of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. PPG rated highest among the three leading paints and coatings suppliers, with top rankings for price, delivery and service. The company easily outdistanced two glass competitors on significantly higher rankings for quality, delivery, service and innovation. Quest for Excellence awards in 19 supplier categories were presented during ceremonies at the Dearborn Ritz Carlton Hotel.
