•3、Ball Corporation
Ball Corporation is an American company headquartered in Westminster, Colorado. It is best known for its early production of glass jars, lids, and related products used for home canning. Since its founding in Buffalo, New York, in 1880, when it was known as the Wooden Jacket Can Company, the Ball company has expanded and diversified into other business ventures, including aerospace technology. It eventually became the world's largest manufacturer of recyclable metal beverage and food containers.
The Ball brothers renamed their business the Ball Brothers Glass Manufacturing Company, incorporated in 1886. Its headquarters, as well as its glass and metal manufacturing operations, were moved to Muncie, Indiana, by 1889. The business was renamed the Ball Brothers Company in 1922 and the Ball Corporation in 1969. It became a publicly traded stock company on the New York Stock Exchange in 1973.
Ball left the home canning business in 1993 by spinning off a former subsidiary (Alltrista) into a free-standing company, which renamed itself Jarden Corporation. As part of the spin-off, Jarden is licensed to use the Ball registered trademark on its line of home-canning products. Today, the Ball brand for mason jars and home canning supplies belongs to Newell Brands.
For over 90 years, Ball continued to be a family-owned business. Renamed the Ball Brothers Company in 1922, it remained well known for manufacturing fruit jars, lids, and related products for home canning. The company also entered into other business ventures. Because the four main components of their core product line of canning jars included glass, zinc, rubber, and paper, the Ball company acquired a zinc strip rolling mill to produce metal lids for their glass jars, manufactured rubber sealing rings for the jars, and acquired a paper mill to fabricate the packaging used in shipping their products. The company also acquired tin, steel, and later, plastic companies.
The Ball Corporation has made improvements to its environmental record since 2006, when the company began its first formal sustainability efforts. In 2008 the Ball Corporation issued its first sustainability report and began releasing subsequent sustainability reports on its website. The first report was an ACCA- Ceres North American Sustainability Awards cowinner of the Best First Time Reporter award in 2009.
•4、Tetra Pak International SA
Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Groupe Tetra Laval
Incorporated: 1951 as AB Tetra Pak
Tetra Pak International SA makes laminated containers such as juice boxes. For decades identified with its unique tetrahedral dairy packaging, the company’s product line has grown to include hundreds of diverse containers. It is a leading supplier of plastic milk bottles. With its sister companies, Tetra Pak claims to be the only provider of complete systems for processing, packaging, and distributing liquid foodstuffs worldwide. Tetra Pak products are sold in more than 165 countries. The company describes itself as a partner in developing its client’s concepts rather than as a mere vendor. Tetra Pak and its founding dynasty have been notoriously secretive about profits; parent company Tetra Laval is controlled by the family of Gad Rausing, who died in 2000, through Netherlands-registered Yora Holding and Baldurion BV. The company reported 94.1 billion packages sold in 2001.
Origins
Dr. Ruben Rausing was born on June 17, 1895 in Raus, Sweden. After studying economics in Stockholm, he went to America in 1920 for graduate studies at New York’s Columbia University. There, he witnessed the growth of self-service grocery stores, which he believed would soon be coming to Europe, along with a heightened demand for packaged foods. In 1929, with Erik Akerlund, he established the first Scandinavian packaging company.
Development of a new milk container began in 1943. The goal was to provide optimal food safety while using a minimum amount of material. The new containers were formed from a tube that was filled with liquid; individual units were sealed off below the level of the beverage inside without introducing any air. Rausing reportedly got the idea from watching his wife Elizabeth stuffing sausages. Erik Wallenberg, who joined the firm as a lab worker, is credited with engineering the concept, for which he was paid SKr 3,000 (six months of wages at the time).
Tetra Pak was founded in 1951 as a subsidiary of Akerlund & Rausing. The new packaging system was unveiled on May 18 of that year. The next year, it delivered its first machine for packaging cream in tetrahedral cartons to Lundaortens Mejerifõrening, a dairy in Lund, Sweden. The 100 ml container, which was covered in plastic rather than paraffin, would be named Tetra Classic. Before this, European dairies typically dispensed milk in bottles or in other containers brought by customers. Tetra Classic was both hygienic and, with individual servings, convenient.
The firm continued to focus exclusively on beverage packaging for the next 40 years. Tetra Pak introduced the world’s first aseptic carton in 1961. It would become known as Tetra Classic Aseptic (TCA). This product was different in two important ways from the original Tetra Classic. The first was in the addition of a layer of aluminum. The second was that the product was sterilized at a high temperature. The new aseptic packaging allowed milk and other products to be kept several months without refrigeration. The Institute of Food Technologists called this the most important food packaging innovation of the century.
Building with a Erik in the 1970s-80s
Tetra Brik Aseptic (TBA), a rectangular version, debuted in 1968 and sparked dramatic international growth. The TBA would account for most of Tetra Pak’s business into the next century. Borden Inc. brought Brik Pak to U.S. consumers in 1981 when it began using this packaging for its juices. At the time, Tetra Pak’s worldwide revenues were SKr 9.3 billion ($1.1 billion). Active in 83 countries, its licensees were putting out more than 30 billion containers a year, or 90 percent of the aseptic package market, reported Business Week. Tetra Pak claimed to pack 40 percent of Europe’s dairy packaging market, reported Britain’s Financial Times. The company had 22 plants, three of them for making machinery. Tetra Pak employed 6,800 people, about 2,000 of them in Switzerland.
Tetra Pak’s ubiquitous coffee-cream packages, often seen at restaurants, were by then only a small portion of sales. The Tetra Prisma Aseptic carton, eventually adopted in more than 33 countries, would become one of the company’s greatest successes. This octagonal carton featured a pull-tab and a range of printing possibilities. Tetra Fino Aseptic, launched in Egypt, was another successful innovation of the same time period. This inexpensive container consisted of a paper/polyethylene pouch and was used for milk. Tetra Wedge Aseptic first appeared in Indonesia. Tetra Top, introduced in 1991, had a resealable plastic top.
We commit to making food safe and available, everywhere. We work for and with our customers to provide preferred processing and packaging solutions for food. We apply our commitment to innovation, our understanding of consumer needs, and our relationships with suppliers to deliver these solutions, wherever and whenever food is consumed. We believe in responsible industry leadership, creating profitable growth in harmony with environmental sustainability, and good corporate citizenship.
Gad Rausing died in 2000, leaving ownership of the Tetra Laval empire to his children—Jorn, Finn, and Kristen. When he sold his share of the company to his brother in 1995, Hans Rausing also agreed not to compete with Tetra Pak until 2001. He emerged from retirement backing a Swedish packaging company, EcoLean, devoted to a new biodegradable “Lean-Material” made primarily of chalk. Rausing acquired a 57 percent stake in the venture, which had been formed in 1996 by Ake Rosen.
Tetra Pak continued to introduce innovations. In 2002, the company launched a new high-speed packaging machine, the TBA/22. It was capable of packaging 20,000 cartons an hour, making it the fastest in the world. Under development was the Tetra Recart, the world’s first carton able to be sterilized.
