Wovon das Geschäft abhängt

1. 1Manufacturing depends on externally purchased raw materials, including resins, solvents, titanium dioxide, additives, epoxy and pigments, as well as energy and logistics services.
2. 2The business depends on customers in construction, vehicle manufacturing and repair, aerospace, packaging and other industrial markets; activity in these markets can change with economic conditions.
3. 3Sales and earnings are affected by currency movements because PPG has significant operations outside the United States.
4. 4Chemical registration rules and environmental requirements can affect which raw materials PPG can use and the cost of operating or cleaning up sites.
