Ranked No. 7 on this year’s list, 2005 marks the ninth time the company has made the list and the fourth consecutive year it has been in the top 10.

“The Triangle is consistently rated one of the top places in the United States to live and work because of its healthy business climate, which indicates how strong the competition is for this award,” said Don Holzworth, Chairman and CEO. “I am extremely proud of the fact that Constella has made this prestigious list nine times, not just because it shows that our company is steadily growing, but because of the important work Constella employees are doing around the world every day to help people live healthier, safer lives.”
