Milwaukee honored with the American Eagle Award

May 7, 2002

Stockholm, Sweden, May 6, 2002 - Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation, a company within the Atlas Copco Group, was the overall winner of the American Eagle Award 2002. The award program recognizes corporate activities that best promote the principles of the American free enterprise system.

Industrial Supply Manufacturers Association (ISMA), and Industrial Distribution Association (I.DA) members across the U.S. annually compete for the American Eagle Awards. This year, nine manufacturers and distributors and one individual were honored with awards in separate classifications and special categories. Since the American Eagle Awards program was established in 1975, more than 400 manufacturers and distributors have participated in the competition.

Milwaukee, overall winner in the manufacturing category, is a leader in promoting the free enterprise system that is “far above the standards of most companies,” according to Gary Salvatore, chair of the ISMA American Eagle Awards Committee. “These award recipients are truly raising the bar of excellence for how our corporate culture and policies can encourage our employees and communities to live and thrive together for the benefit of both.”

Atlas Copco recently introduced its Milwaukee brand of professional electric tools on a larger scale to the European market. Through the launch, customers in Europe will get access to a top-of-the-line North American product range.
