Smurfit Westrock, a sustainable paper and packaging company, has chosen ISN’s global online contractor and supplier management platform. 

Known as ISNetworld, the principal contractor management system will support Smurfit Westrock in all facets of contractor management and compliance.  

Smurfit Westrock EHS corporate supervisor Rogelio Serrano said: “At Smurfit Westrock, we believe that nothing is so important that it cannot be done safely.   

“Partnering with ISN is a natural extension of our commitment to ensure the health and well-being of our employees and contractors. With ISNetworld, we can now track contractor statistics for safety programmes across our operations and easily visualise these insights both at the company and individual level.” 

Operating in 40 countries with more than 100,000 employees, Smurfit Westrock manages over 500 packaging operations and 63 paper mills.  

The company is known for its broad range of innovative packaging solutions, including corrugated and consumer packaging, bag-in-box packaging, and point-of-sale displays. 

ISN vice-president Joe Schloesser said: “We’re excited to expand our work with Smurfit Westrock globally, including new implementations with its operations in Mexico. 

“Smurfit Westrock is at the forefront of paper and packaging innovation, and we’re proud to partner with them to help ensure safety and sustainability remain strong pillars of its company culture.” 

ISNetworld is utilised by over 800 companies to manage and evaluate information for more than 80,000 contractors and suppliers.

Last month, Smurfit Kappa announced that its merger deal had taken effect with folding paperboard box manufacturer Westrock.
