PPG to Enhance Distribution Capabilities for Architectural Paint, Coatings With New Facility in Flower Mound, Texas

PPG (NYSE:PPG) today announced plans for a new distribution center in Flower Mound, Texas. The nearly 450,000-square-foot facility, which will be constructed and leased through Duke Realty (NYSE:DRE), will be the largest distribution center for architectural paints and coatings in PPG’s U.S. and Canada network.

The new facility will strengthen the company’s distribution model and allow for improved, efficient service to PPG’s national accounts, company stores and independent retailers across the U.S. The project is expected to be completed in May 2019.

“PPG is incredibly proud to announce the Flower Mound distribution center project in this important market,” said Dave Cole, PPG vice president, architectural coatings, U.S. and Canada. “The new facility will continue to grow the presence of PPG in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and allow for even greater efficiency in serving our customers in the Southwest U.S. region.”

PPG’s architectural coatings business employs nearly 900 people in Texas, and the company also supports local industry-relevant science, technology, engineering and math training and education initiatives through the PPG Foundation.
