At Sealed Air, we view corporate citizenship as a business essential. It is where innovation and our Code of Conduct converge with environmental and social interests to create economic value and sustainable leadership in the marketplace.

Our goal is simple. Through our fundamental knowledge and expertise in packaging, we strive to help open the world culturally and economically, and do so in ways that reduce costs and harm to the environment. The challenges to meet this goal are growing, as are our opportunities – opportunities to not only provide value to each of our stakeholders, but to make a valuable contribution to the world at large.

We are improving our environmental performance in our own operations while at the same time committing more resources to developing more environmentally neutral products and services.

We are collaborating with supply chain partners and governments to tackle the issue of world hunger. We believe that by working together with our partners throughout the supply chain, we can help developing countries harness new technologies, capture and share knowledge and use sustainable production practices for improving yield, packaging and distribution of food crops – not only helping farmers expand crop production to meet their own needs, but to generate a saleable surplus that can be linked to other markets.

We are expanding our relationships with universities and community officials in emerging markets like China and Russia in order to develop new technologies designed specifically to meet the needs of local consumers.

And as we grow in new geographies, we remain committed to our “one” company culture – at the heart of which are the talented, passionate employees who demonstrate our core values everyday, in every part of our organization, in every part of the globe.

Throughout our history, our Company has endured by being able to grow and transform with the changing world while remaining committed to the basic philosophy of “It is not what we make that matters most – it is what we make happen”. We hope that our Citizenship Review demonstrates how this philosophy is part of our everyday work around the globe.
