About

The Benchmarking and Best Practices Conference is a no-nonsense business exchange designed to provide profit-impacting information to senior executives in the plastics and rubber manufacturing industry. Our continuing goal is to help plastics and rubber companies improve their operations and tactics in order to impact bottom-line profits. Past attendees of this conference will testify that this is the best format in America for executives to learn how to do just that. The conference is anchored with best practices and leading benchmark presentations derived from the industry’s best known source of statistical information – the 2013 North America Survey of the Plastics Industry. Known as the absolute best benchmarks in the industry, these presentations identify and correlate profitability to operational behaviors, market choices, and more.
