Fastmarkets Launches Corrugated Cost Benchmark For North America On October 19, Fastmarkets launched the Corrugated Cost Benchmark (CCB) for North America, a calculated bench- mark measuring changes in the principal costs associated with manufacturing and delivering corrugated boxes. The CCB will provide greater transparency into chang- es in the underlying costs of manufacturing and delivering corrugated boxes in North America and respond to mar- ket demand for a robust and consistent measure of those changes. It will combine Fastmarkets’ virgin and recycled fiber price data with third-party economic and cost indica- tors covering labor, energy, chemicals, maintenance, other manufacturing costs and transportation. January 2019 provides a baseline of 100. CCB will mea- sure subsequent changes in a modeled industry-average cost basket and will not represent the absolute cost or market price of a corrugated box.
