Sealed
Air announces that it has been recognized as the most admired company in its
industry and one of the most admired companies globally for innovation and
social responsibility, according to Fortune Magazines’ annual survey published
last week.
The annual “Fortune Most Admired Companies” survey ranked Sealed Air first
among 10 companies in the packaging industry, including the top ranking
in seven of the nine categories in which companies are evaluated –
innovation, people management, social responsibility, management quality,
financial soundness, quality of products and global competitiveness.
Sealed Air also ranked in the Top 10 in both the innovation and social
responsibility categories for all companies surveyed worldwide. In addition,
Sealed Air was ranked first among the most admired companies in New Jersey.
“To
receive the recognition of our peers reaffirms the dedication our 26,300
employees have around the world to our core operating priorities which
incorporate being innovative and socially responsible,” says William V. Hickey,
President and CEO, Sealed Air. “We have committed our company to a path
of invention to help increase access to food, keep it fresh, safe and secure
for people around the world; to safeguard human health; and to protect the
valuable goods we ship every day.
Through our SmartLife™ initiative, we are also providing solutions that enhance
sustainability across the supply chain by helping to optimize the use of raw
materials, conserve energy and water, reduce waste and provide convenience.”
