PPG has been named Official Paint Provider of Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort.

PPG announced that it has entered into a multi-year alliance agreement with Disney Parks, Experiences and Products. The agreement recognizes PPG as the official supplier of paints, finishes and coatings of Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort.

In Disney parks, paint and colour play a fundamental role in bringing dreams to life for all who visit the world's most magical destinations. Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort offer multiple possibilities for PPG paints and coatings to be in full view while adding a pop of colour to the façade of some of the most famous streets in Florida and California, providing at the same time a protective layer to the surfaces where guests eat, play, stay and relax.

“Disney and PPG have over 50 years of rich history of collaborating, as both companies understand the fundamental importance of creating magical, inspirational and engaging spaces. This expanded relationship will allow us to strategically combine the experience of two well-known brands and supply PPG’s industry-leading expertise, services, resources and a variety of high-performing products to help enhance the Disney guest experience”, said Jaime Irick, vice president, PPG Architectural Coatings, U.S. and Canada.

“We’re thrilled to enter into a parks alliance with PPG, expanding upon our decades-long relationship and years of teamwork. PPG is a known leader in providing innovative solutions in their industry and we look forward to our enhanced collaboration”, said Carlos Castro, vice president, Disney Corporate Alliances.

Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort showcase a wide variety of PPG paints and coatings, including:

PPG PURE PERFORMANCE®: a latex paint for interiors, formulated for excellent hide and with zero VOC. Visitors will be able to find this super-powered coating in the Guardians of the Galaxy at the EPCOT® park. Additionally, PPG PURE PERFORMANCE can be found on the surfaces inside the Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway attraction at Disneyland® Park.
