Tork/SCA Joins The Handwashing Leadership Forum®

Jim Mann, Executive Director of The Handwashing Leadership Forum®, announced that SCA had accepted the invitation to join their alliance.

SCA is best known for their Tork brand of paper towel dispenser systems and is a world leader in technology and research. They were recently rated as the second "Greenest" company in the world. (The number one spot was won by a wind turbine company.) Their products carry the EcoLogo designation, a highly respected North American certification.

SCA Tissue North America this past year donated 34,560 rolls of paper towels to the Feeding America domestic hunger-relief charity to help in the relief of victims of the hurricanes that hit the Gulf Coast.

"These recognitions reflect the spirit of leadership important to our organization" stated Mann. He added that the Handwashing Leadership Forum invitation "was heavily influenced by recommendations from foodservice operators and the experience of other Forum Members. All highly valued their corporate culture and the service component of their offerings. They have clearly demonstrated customer responsiveness and live up to all of our Best Practice criteria."

Tork offers a complete system of Away-From-Home products and services for personal hygiene as well as for wiping, cleaning and polishing applications in industrial and manufacturing settings. As the leader in the foodservice industry, Tork also has a complete range of table napkins and dispensing systems for all of the front and back-of-house needs.
