Coats Group plc, the world’s leading manufacturer of thread and structural components for apparel and footwear and an innovative pioneer in performance materials, has been recognised on the 2025 Best Workplaces in Asia™ List by Great Place To Work®, the global authority on workplace culture. Ranked among the top 15 companies in Asia, this achievement reflects Coats’ commitment to building a positive and inclusive workplace culture across the region.
“Being named to the Best Workplaces in Asia List is a reflection of our commitment to fostering an inclusive, engaging, and supportive workplace culture. We are proud of this recognition, which celebrates the voices of our colleagues across the region,” said David Paja, Group Chief Executive Officer.
“Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in Asia,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work®. “These leading companies are showing the way, building workplaces that make communities stronger, nations more prosperous, and the world a better place.”
This year’s list was chosen after surveying more than 3.2 million employees in Asia and the Middle East about their workplace experiences. In total, the survey results represent the work experiences of over 7.5 million employees across the region. To qualify, companies must appear on at least one national Best Workplaces™ list and, in the large category, employ more than 500 people across Asia.

Coats China has been named among the Best Workplaces for Women in Greater China™, and Coats Vietnam has been recognised as one of the Best Workplaces in Vietnam™. Coats Indonesia has also been listed among the Best Workplaces in Indonesia™.
These recognitions are based on confidential survey data assessing employee experiences of trust, innovation, company values, and leadership. The companies consistently honoured demonstrate high levels of employee satisfaction across all roles and demographics.
