Cemex, a global building materials company with aggregate operations across the United States, was included in Forbes’ third annual list of the World’s Best Regarded Companies.

Cemex ranks 15th on the list and is the highest-ranking construction materials company on it.

Three tire manufacturers serving the aggregate industry – Bridgestone (56th) and Michelin Group (111th), Goodyear (181st) – also appear on the list.

Forbes partnered with Statista to cull its annual list of the world’s 2,000 largest public companies down to the top 250 best-regarded businesses based on their trustworthiness, social conduct, the strength of their products and services, and how they fare as employers.

To gather data, Statista surveyed 15,000 respondents from more than 50 countries.
