PPG and The Home Depot Expand Partnership with Launch of OLYMPIC Stain Products
PITTSBURGH — PPG and THE HOME DEPOT® announced an expanded partnership to offer PPG’s OLYMPIC® brand stains in its nearly 2,000 locations across the United States. The partnership combines the innovative woodcare performance of Olympic stains with the largest retailer of exterior stains, providing great selection and value to The Home Depot customers. Consumer-trusted stain products, including Olympic MAXIMUM®, Olympic ELITE™ and Olympic WATERGUARD® will become available at most of these Home Depot locations by the end of the second quarter 2018.
In addition, PPG’s latest innovation, Olympic SmartGuard will soon be available at select U.S. Home Depot stores in time for the spring season. A first-of-its-kind product in North America, Olympic SmartGuard aims to take the hassle out of weekend projects with a super-concentrated formula in a lightweight, easy-to-handle pouch package. Drying in as little as one hour after application, as compared to 24-48 hours for traditional products, it provides a durable, super water-resistant seal. Unlike traditional stain products, there is no brushing required — easy spray-on application allows homeowners to spend less time applying and more time enjoying their outdoor living space.
