Web Industries is a converting company headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts. These converted materials are then used in a wide range of products from video cassettes, phone cables, garbage bags, and batteries to candy wrappers, zippers, diapers, and many more.
Web has six divisions in Massachusetts, Georgia, Connecticut, Indiana, and Texas.
The fascinating part of Web's story, however, is how it has flattened its management and organizational structures and created a work environment in which employee owners are viewed, treated, and rewarded as true partners in business. This transformation has allowed Web to tap the full potential of employee ownership and redefine itself as one the most innovative companies within both the converting industry and the employee ownership community. Robert Fulton founded Web Industries back in 1969 and slowly built a successful company from its modest beginnings in a basement with two employees. Fulton believed that the role of business in society was something greater than just the generation of profits. He envisioned the company as a place that should foster the personal growth of its employees through an ongoing process of learning, creative development, and commitment to values like fairness, integrity, and respect for people.
