These include energy efficiency, renewable raw mater ials, light weighting and conserving natural resources. Product weight information is collected and an average material production factor is used. As we look to the future, we expect these eight areas to gain even more importance—and acceptance—among our customers and their end users.

Abernathy’s unique perspective gained while working in the healthcare and consumer products industries can add value when evaluating our commercial relationships in those industries. The performance measures for the 2017 Annual Incentive Program were weighted as outlined in the charts below. The four, equally weighted performance periods listed below were used in order to drive annual as well as cumulative performance.
