Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract] |
Pension And Other Post-Retirement Benefits | The Company sponsors noncontributory defined benefit (pension) plans covering most employees. The plans for salaried and hourly employees currently in effect are based on a formula using the participant’s years of service and compensation or using the participant’s years of service and a dollar amount. The plan was closed to new participants in 2006 and pay for active plan participants was frozen as of December 31, 2007. With the exception of plan participants at one of Tredegar’s U.S. manufacturing facilities, the plan no longer accrues benefits associated with crediting employees for service, thereby freezing future benefits under the plan. The components of net periodic benefit cost for our pension and other post-retirement benefit programs reflected in consolidated results are shown below:

Pension and other post-retirement liabilities were $99.0 million and $101.0 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively ($0.6 million included in “Accrued expenses” at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, with the remainder included in “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets). The Company’s required contributions are expected to be approximately $6 million in 2016. There was a contribution to the pension plan in the amount of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2016. Tredegar funds its other post-retirement benefits (life insurance and health benefits) on a claims-made basis, which the Company anticipates will be consistent with amounts paid for the year ended December 31, 2015, or $0.3 million.
