Pall Corp named a top green company by magazine

Pall Corporation has been named one of the greenest companies in America by Newsweek magazine. Pall was ranked second in the industrial goods sector and 47th among America’s 500 largest companies. The publication’s first-ever list of ‘Green Companies’ appears in the September 28th issue. For more than a year, the publication analyzed data compiled by three research partners to determine scores for environmental impact, green policies and reputation.

These scores were then combined with each company’s greenhouse gas emissions and were evaluated. Pall received an overall Green Score of 81.94. The company adopted aggressive environmental sustainability goals as part of its longterm plan. It says it is on track to reduce its global carbon footprint by 10% in each of the three categories – energy consumption, carbon emissions and waste output – by 2010.
