The Flexible Packaging Association recently released one of its benchmarking reports. The 2013 Fourth Quarter Industry Earnings Report examines the profitability and productivity of the flexible packaging industry. Key financial and operating expense data appears within the Report, which is gathered from FPA converter members through the 2013 Fourth Quarter Industry Earnings Survey. The Report is only available to those FPA converter members who participated in the survey. 

The FPA conducts the Earnings Survey/Report program on a semi-annual basis in the second quarter and fourth quarter of each calendar year.
