SCA, Philadelphia, Pa., USA, maker of the Tork® brand of away-from-home paper products, will be a product supplier for Lambeau Field, providing the legendary football stadium with towel, tissue, and napkin products and dispensers beginning with the 2013 NFL season. SCA's Tork brand bath tissue, paper towels, and napkins will be located in restrooms and concession areas throughout the stadium.
"We are honored to partner with Lambeau Field and the Green Bay Packers, and by extension, to be a partner with some of the best fans in football," said Don Lewis, president, SCA Americas. "For more than 80 years, SCA has taken its environmental stewardship seriously and we want to partner with organizations like the Green Bay Packers that also have a strong desire to become a greener organization. We look forward to helping create a greener Lambeau Field, and building a long and beneficial relationship with one of the NFL's most storied franchises."
Tork products are made in four manufacturing facilities across North America, including Neenah/Menasha – which employs more than 900 Northeast Wisconsin employees.
In addition to supplying Tork products at Lambeau Field, SCA will also be a co-sponsor for the Green Bay Packers "First Downs for Trees" program that provides trees to be planted for every Packers first down reached during the NFL regular season.
"SCA's Tork products align with our focus on efficient and sustainable practices at Lambeau Field," said Ted Eisenreich, Packers director of facility operations. "We are happy to name them as a product supplier and look forward to a green and clean future together."
In Northeast Wisconsin, SCA's commitment to sustainability and community has led to more than $53,000 in environmental grants to local schools since 2007. Additionally, the company has donated employee time and more than $100,000 to several local parks to plant trees, build new playgrounds, improve outdoor facilities, and sponsor nature events.
SCA has nine manufacturing facilities across North America. The company has some 36,000 employees and had revenue in 2012 of $13 billion.
