Discover PPG's Legacy in Silica Production - Leading Precipitated Silica Innovations and Products, Including PPG HI-SIL and AGILON Series.

PPG used to manufacture silica.

Since the 1930s, PPG has been a pioneer in the development and production of silica. It has built a widely recognized and trusted portfolio of precipitated silica products in the industry, including the PPG HI - SIL series and the PPG AGILON performance silica product series. However, on August 29, 2024, PPG announced the sale of its silica product business to QEMETICA at a pre - tax profit of approximately $310 million. The deal encompasses PPG's precipitated silica manufacturing facilities in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Delfzijl, the Netherlands.

The following are some examples of typical indicators for certain products in PPG's Flo - Gard series. However, specific values may vary depending on factors such as production batches.
