(Did you know that GE is the only company listed in the Dow Jones Industrial Index today that was also included in the original index in 1896?)

Over a hundred years of manufacturing, technology, and services have made us the world's largest diversified company. And in the 1960s, when everyone had "just one word for you," GE Plastics burst onto the market with the first engineering plastic, LEXAN® resin. GEP is now one of 20 global GE businesses - all of which rank as either #1 or #2 in their field.

Since 1981, GEP has benefited first-hand from management legend and GE CEO Jack Welch. Today, we're a flat organization with fewer layers and broader responsibilities - keeping the experienced within reach of the new. Interaction like that forges our success. It's what we've always been about.
