PPG Researchers Honored with 2008 Carnegie Science Award

Three senior research associates at Pittsburgh-based PPG Industries, Paul Medwick, James Thiel and Andrew Wagner, were named winners in the Advanced Manufacturing category for the 2008 Carnegie Science Awards.

The researchers were recognized for their leadership and research oversight in the development of Solarban 70XL solar control low-emissivity (low-e) glass by PPG. They will accept a $1,000 award to support PPG’s ongoing development of energy-efficient glasses in a ceremony May 9 at Carnegie Music Hall in the Oakland area of Pittsburgh.

“Winning this award demonstrates PPG’s success in creating innovative technologies and bringing them to market and its commitment to environmental responsibility,” says Victoria M. Holt, PPG senior vice president, glass and fiberglass.
