The World Depends on Chlor-Alkali Chemistry

Chlor-alkali chemistry produces three highly useful chemical building blocks: chlorine, sodium hydroxide and hydrogen. These building blocks react with other compounds to produce thousands of vital products used around the world each and every day. From energy-efficient building materials and solar energy panels, to pharmaceuticals and crop protection products, to electronics and fiber optics, these are just a few products that rely on these key chemicals for production.

As a global producer of these chemical products, PPG is dedicated to exceeding customer needs through a commitment to innovation, service and safety. Operating from manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Canada and Asia, PPG Chlor-Alkali & Derivatives maintains four distinct product lines: chlor-alkali products, chlorinated ethylenes, calcium hypochlorite and specialty phosgene derivative chemicals.
