Sealed Air Corp

NYSE:SEE

Sealed Air Corp., founded in 1960, carved its place in the corporate world with a stroke of ingenuity. The company’s origins trace back to a simple but groundbreaking invention: Bubble Wrap. What began as an accidental discovery by engineers Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes in their quest to create textured wallpaper, evolved into a revolutionary packaging solution. Sealed Air capitalized on this novel product by addressing the global demand for protective packaging, fundamentally altering how goods are shipped around the world. Over the years, the company expanded its portfolio beyond Bubble Wrap, diversifying into other protective and specialty packaging products. With a keen focus on sustainability and innovation, Sealed Air continued to redefine industry standards by engaging in the development of advanced materials and technologies to safeguard goods during shipment. Sealed Air’s business model hinges on its ability to solve complex supply chain challenges through its broad spectrum of products and services. The company earns its revenue primarily from two distinct divisions: Food Care and Product Care. The Food Care sector serves a vast range of industries by providing solutions that extend the shelf life of perishable goods, enhance food safety, and reduce food waste. Meanwhile, the Product Care division caters to a diverse set of customers, including e-commerce and logistics companies, by delivering custom-engineered solutions that ensure product integrity during storage and transport. By continuing to innovate and optimize both the efficiency and sustainability of its offerings, Sealed Air has maintained its stature as a leader in the global packaging industry.
