More collision centers in the National Rule areas of North America are now using PPG Automotive Refinish waterborne products than in low-VOC regulated areas. The announcement was made by Tim Jones, PPG waterborne segment manager.

Of the 9,000+ collision centers in the United States and Canada using PPG waterborne products, over fifty percent of them are in areas not required to meet current lower VOC limits. Such limits are in place in California, Canada and Delaware and will soon be implemented in Maryland, Utah and other regions.
