PITTSBURGH – PPG announced the availability of comprehensive building information modeling (BIM) materials for its architectural and metal coatings through a new partnership with BIMSMITH®, a leading cloud platform for architects and designers.
The partnership enables designers to use PPG’s architectural and metal coatings alongside exterior components in AUTODESK® REVIT® and other leading architectural design applications, adding efficiency and intelligence to a building’s design and maintenance.
The new PPG BIM materials include PPG DURANAR® coatings, which are known around the world for exceptional durability and performance.
PPG also offers more than 70 architectural coatings from the PPG PAINTS™ brand on the BIMsmith platform, including MANOR HALL® paint, SPEEDHIDE® paint and BREAK-THROUGH!® paint.
