Whoever said "service is everything" probably had a company like EagleBurgmann in mind. The company has successfully marketed seal technology around the globe for the past 126 years. Its mechanical seals are designed for extremely demanding applications in pumps, compressors and agitators in a range of industries.
EagleBurgmann has also bucked the trend this past fiscal year by increasing overall sales by double digits! Think this is great? Well there's more. With a global workforce of more than 4,900 employees, they've managed to keep their team dedicated to service and leadership in their communities through their SEAL TEAM Initiative that supports local outreach programs.
The SEAL TEAM stands for:
Service Encouragement Action Leadership
Together EagleBurgmann Achieves More
During a recent visit to their Houston, Texas, facility, Larry N. Montague, President and CEO of TAPPI and Eric Fletty, Vice President of Operations had the opportunity to meet with a few of the men and women who drive the SEAL TEAM. Their work includes blood drives, charity, ink cartridge recycling program, stuffed animal drive, EBI Kid Sports sponsorships, Dragon Boat races (picture), and food drives, as well as social activities for the organization.
"It's important that everyone has the opportunity to reach out and contribute into the communities in which we live and work – the SEAL TEAM is our conduit into these efforts and we're happy that our employees bring their energy and drive to these programs," noted Marcus Pillion, President of EagleBurgmann USA." We are always proud to highlight the work our members, like EagleBurgmann, are doing to make a difference in their communities, their companies and our industry. Keep up the good work!
This is the POWER of TAPPI MEMBERS serving their community. If you'd like TAPPI to feature your company's community service projects or outreach initiatives, please send an email to memberspotlight@tappi.org.
