Description: SLGN Silgan Holdings

Silgan Holdings Inc. is a U.S.-based manufacturer of rigid packaging solutions serving consumer goods end-markets across North America and international markets. The company operates through three business segments: Dispensing and Specialty Closures, Metal Containers, and Custom Containers, offering products such as dispensing pumps, specialty caps, steel and aluminum cans, and custom PET and polyethylene containers. Its products are used by brand owners in fragrance and beauty, food and beverage, personal and health care, home care, and lawn and garden applications, with customers ranging from food processors to makers of condiments, pet food, and powdered drink mixes. Silgan distributes primarily through its direct sales force, supplemented by distributor networks and an online catalog, and has been headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut since its founding in 1987.

As a constituent of the Materials sector within the Metal, Glass & Plastic Containers sub-industry, Silgan participates in a defensive packaging segment whose revenue tends to track closely with underlying consumer staples volume rather than discretionary spending. The rigid packaging business model is typically characterized by long-standing customer relationships with branded consumer goods companies and multi-year supply agreements, which contribute to relatively stable, recurring order patterns.
