Paintmaker PPG seeing benefits from surge in data center plans
PITTSBURGH -- In a concrete building known as "the bunker," researchers at PPG, a $24 billion company that makes paints, aimed torches at steel panels that were covered in a gray coating. Paintmaker PPG, a $24 billion company that produces paints, is seeing a surge in data center plans, as tech giants such as Microsoft, Google, Amazon and other tech giants have rushed to build the computing sites powering the artificial intelligence frenzy. PPG expects its paint sales for data centers to triple this year from last year, exceeding the company's total sales of $4.5 billion. The company's biggest rival, Sherwin-Williams, said its paints go into nearly every corner of data centers, from steel beams to server racks. As data centers proliferate, PPG's sales have also increased. The surge in AI sales has also reached even ordinary goods, including paint and gravel.
