PPG Industries has completed the sale of its European flat and automotive glass business to Belgum's Glaverbel. Terms have not been disclosed but it is reported that the sale may produce a pre-tax gain in excess of US$90m. The divestment should strengthen PPG's portfolio as it will focus its glass business resources on its profitable operations in North America.
