Owens Corning announced it has been named to Corporate Responsibility Magazine’s 12th annual list of the “100 Best Corporate Citizens™.” The company ranked 68th on the 2011 list. Rankings are based on 320 data points of disclosure on performance in seven categories: environment, climate change, employee relations, human rights, governance, financial performance and philanthropy.

“Owens Corning is honored to again be named to the 100 Best Corporate Citizens list,” said Frank O'Brien-Bernini, chief sustainability officer. “This recognition is particularly meaningful because it reflects our company’s continued progress and dedication to economic growth, social progress, and environmental stewardship as we deliver sustainable solutions for our building materials and composites customers around the world.”
