PPG (NYSE:PPG) today announced that it has been named to Newsweek magazine’s America’s Greenest Companies 2025 list. The list recognizes the top 500 private and public U.S. companies committed to reducing their environmental impact in key areas including greenhouse gas emissions, water management, and waste reduction.

“At PPG, we pride ourselves on integrating sustainability into our business strategy,” said Peter Votruba-Drzal, PPG vice president, global sustainability. “With our customers, we use it as a driver to accelerate growth with sustainably advantaged products* and productivity innovations. In our own operations, we use it as a catalyst to improve productivity through energy efficiency, waste minimization, and water reduction.”

In 2023, PPG reported strong progress against its 2030 sustainability targets, including:

  • 45% of process waste sent to reuse, recycle, and recovery
  • 13% reduction in water intensity at priority sites
  • 10% reduction in scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions
  • 12% reduction in scope 3 GHG emissions, reflective of reporting categories 1, 10, and 12**
  • 97% of key suppliers assessed to sustainability and social responsibility criteria

Newsweek partnered with Plant-A Insights Group and GIST Impact to compile the list. To ensure the highest standards, only companies that meet the European Union's stringent sustainability criteria – considered the most advanced globally – were eligible for consideration. The companies were evaluated and scored on more than 25 parameters, including sustainability data disclosure and commitments.
