“From the initial founding of Silgan 35 years ago, we have followed one Mission, to compete and win in our markets by being the best at what we do. Phil Silver not only kept us focused on those ideals, but he also personifies them in every way,” said Tony Allott, Chairman of the Board. “His unwavering focus on shareholder value creation, his insistence on rigor of thought and logic and his ability to find a path to success through a variety of challenges are hallmarks of his impact on Silgan. On behalf of the Board of Directors and the entire Silgan team, we wish to sincerely thank Phil for his guidance, wisdom, integrity and friendship. While Silgan is losing his presence and great fiduciary voice with his retirement, we know that his example and teachings will remain with each of us. We wish Phil the very best in his retirement,” concluded Mr. Allott.
