What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting
PPG announced it received the 2026 Green Chemistry Challenge Award from the ACS Green Chemistry Institute for SIGMAGLIDE 2390, a biocide-free silicone-based fouling-release coating. The technology, enhanced with HYDRORESET, can lower hull drag, improve fuel efficiency, and cut emissions, with third-party tests suggesting up to 20% power savings and up to 35% CO2 reductions. The coating supports electrostatic application, potentially reducing overspray in dry-dock operations and strengthening PPG's sustainability credentials.
