Rhino celebrates 60 years; named as Great Place to Work

Rhino, the nation’s leading provider of roofing solutions, celebrates 60 years in business this June with the added endorsement as a Great Place to Work, as voted by its employees.

Most recently lauded as the Best Exporter in the value-added minerals sector at Presidential Export Awards 2020/21, Rhino has cemented its standing in the country as a key contributor to the economy in the six decades it has been in business. Celebrating its 60th anniversary this May, Rhino is a 100 percent Sri Lankan company that has for decades focused on providing the best quality products to the market. Rhino has strategically positioned itself to compete against global players by creating demand for the quality roofing products it manufactures.

Rhino Roofing Products Limited Managing Director E.J. Gnanam, commented on the milestone and recognition. “We are proud to achieve the Great Place to Work award at a juncture where we celebrate 60 years as an upstanding corporate citizen. We celebrated the 100th birthday of our late Chairman Deshamanya A.Y.S. Gnanam this May and I am delighted to have our own employees’ vote of confidence in our company coincide with this key milestone, which reflects on the positive influence of culture and the right values inculcated in our human capital, as an equal opportunities employer,” he stated.

Rhino was presented with the Great Place to Work award in June 2022, coinciding with the 60th year celebrations. Great Place to Work recognises the best employers in the market they operate in, following a robust review system examining all aspects of the workplace experience for the employees. 

Rhino met the required global assessment standards required to be Great Place to Work-Certified in Sri Lanka, scoring for having a people first culture, great synergy between employer and employee and most importantly the belief in employees that they work at a great place.
