KI Receives 2024 Wisconsin 75 Distinguished Performer Award in Sustainability

GREEN BAY, WIS. - KI is proud to announce that it has been honored with the 2024 Wisconsin 75 Distinguished Performer Award in the Sustainability category. This prestigious award recognizes KI's unwavering commitment to reducing the environmental impact of its processes and products.

The Wisconsin 75 program, presented by Deloitte, celebrates the largest privately held businesses headquartered in Wisconsin and the impact they have on the state's economy and communities. KI's recognition in the Sustainability category underscores the company's leadership in environmental stewardship and its dedication to fostering a sustainable future.

"We are incredibly honored to receive this award," said Tom Abrahamson, VP of Manufacturing Operations at KI. "This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our employee-owners, who are deeply committed to sustainability. Our unique employee-owned culture drives us to take pride not just in what we make, but in how we make it. We believe in supporting local manufacturing to ensure future generations have a healthy planet to thrive on."

KI's approach to environmental stewardship is centered around three primary areas: operations and manufacturing, material safety, and product life cycle. Last year KI achieved significant milestones, including a 17% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and a 23.1% reduction in energy consumption compared to its 2017 baseline. The company also invests in renewable energy and ensures that its products are made from healthy, non-toxic materials with high recycled content.

The award will be formally presented at Deloitte's annual Wisconsin 75 recognition event and networking reception on September 24th at Marquette University, starting at 4:00 PM CST. The event will feature a keynote address by Reince Priebus, former White House Chief of Staff and Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and current Political Analyst for ABC News.
