Sonoco receives Sherwin-Williams Certified Supplier Award for fifth consecutive year

Diversified packaging provider Sonoco has received Sherwin-Williams' Certified Supplier Award for achieving the highest level of product quality and performance, and for outstanding customer service; it is the fifth year in a row that Sonoco has received this award.

"This is a tremendous honor and a credit to all of the Sonoco employees that work hard every day to make this a reality," said Steve Pierro, division vice president and general manager, Sonoco Global Injection Molding and Extrusion. "This is not an easy award to achieve. Sonoco prides itself delivering high quality packaging solutions to our global customers, so to be recognized by a company such as Sherwin-Williams for a fifth straight year is very gratifying."

The award was presented to all Sonoco plants that service Sherwin-Williams, including Beavercreek, OH, Winchester, KY, and Hanover, PA. Sonoco supplies Sherwin-Williams with a comprehensive line of adhesives and sealants packaging, including fiber cartridges, plastic cartridges, squeeze tubes and plungers.
