Participating companies are surveyed on their machinery, labor operations and waste. The 2023 report includes data for 25 companies and over 443 plants in 6 different countries. Data covers 360 corrugators and over 2,211 pieces of 33 different kinds of finishing equipment. 

The Survey contains a summary and detailed report for:

Data is further segmented by machinery size in the following major finishing equipment categories:

  • flexo-folder gluers
