Standard Textile announced that the company has been selected as a 2026 US Best Managed Company. Sponsored by Deloitte Private* and The Wall Street Journal, the program recognizes outstanding U.S. private companies.
The 2026 designees are U.S. private companies that have demonstrated excellence in strategic planning and execution, a commitment to their people, as well as maintaining financial performance and governance. This year’s class is making bold investments in digital transformation, including artificial intelligence capabilities, and demonstrates the ability to drive sustainable growth and maintain resilience during times of volatility. These organizations are built on a foundation of trust and reflect a sense of purpose that fosters connections with their employees, customers, and communities.
Standard Textile also earned the distinction of Gold Honoree—companies that have been recognized as a Best Managed Company for four to six years—reflecting consistent achievement and a commitment to ongoing development and growth.
“We are proud to be recognized as a US Best Managed Company for the sixth consecutive year,” says Alex Heiman, president of Standard Textile. “Building on more than 85 years of innovation and service, this achievement reflects the dedication of our teams around the world and their commitment to continuous improvement, customer partnership, and operational excellence. As we continue investing in innovation and sustainable growth, we remain focused on delivering exceptional value to our customers and creating meaningful impact in the communities we serve. We are honored by this recognition and excited for the opportunities ahead.”
Applicants were evaluated and selected by a panel of independent judges who assessed hallmarks of excellence in four key areas: strategy, ability to execute, corporate culture, and governance/financial performance.
