Seal for Life Industries is the most recent partner to join the Huntsville Hospital Foundation’s Business Cares Program.
They have joined the Business Cares initiative because their donation is an investment in the community that will help improve healthcare for all residents.
Seal for Life (SFL) and its associated companies manufacture multiple coating technologies focused on corrosion, fire & temperature protection, and cathodic protection for energy, water, renewables, infrastructure, flooring, and preservation applications. The SFL Canusa brand is a global leader in the development and manufacturing of specialty pipeline coatings for the sealing and corrosion protection of pipeline joints and other substrates. The primary manufacturing site for the SFL Canusa brand is the Huntsville location at 455 West Airport Road, which has been in operation since 1967. SFL Canusa also has a global distribution center in Burk’s Falls. Both SFL Canusa locations serve international markets and customers either through direct sales or through our worldwide distribution channels. SFL Canusa employs 125 Team Members involved in both production and office activities, including operations, engineering, procurement, and maintenance.
“The Team at Seal for Life are excited to become the 55th local Business that supports the Huntsville Hospital Foundation through the Business Cares Program,” says Plant Manager Matt Cook. “The Seal for Life Team is passionate about the community and assisting where we can. We know our local hospital depends on the generosity of donors so they can continue to support the health and wellbeing of our community. Maintaining infrastructure, facility upgrades, and improvement program initiatives require large financial investments. Those funds are not always available, so they rely on the generosity of the community. Our families depend on the work and care they provide, and they depend on us. It is our responsibility to help, and we are proud to be a part of its future through the Business Care Program.”
“We are very grateful to have Seal for Life join our Business Cares Program and I’m sure their 125 team members are happy too!” says Katherine Craine, the Executive Director of the Huntsville Hospital Foundation. “We have found that employees find it rewarding to be working for a company that understands the importance of the health of their community. Thanks to everyone at Seal for Life for your care!”
Huntsville Hospital Foundation in partnership with their Business Cares Committee officially launched their new “Business Cares” initiative in January 2016 with the goal of enrolling forty businesses in the community. They are very happy to report that they have surpassed their goal. Their plan is to continue with this successful imitative, as they have many businesses expressing interest in joining the Business Cares community. Since its inception, fifty-five local businesses have committed to donating $25,000 or more over the next five years for Healthcare for life, here.
Pat Dube Committee Chair, is joined by Committee Members Chantelle Armstrong, Katherine Craine, Mike Harrower, and Trish Kruusmagi who are very active in pursuing new Business Cares Partners, and exploring more, much needed support for Huntsville Hospital.
“The ability of a community to invest in its own health and future for our neighbors, our families, and everyone who visits here is evident in the support of local business leaders,” says Dube. “I’m sure you share my profound gratitude to them all. We’re great when we work together – that’s Business Cares.”
