Products Finishing’s 2025 Top Shops Benchmarking Survey is now open — ahead of its scheduled February 1 opening.
Originally launched in 2015, the Top Shops program is designed to provide surface finishing operations, including electroplating and anodizing facilities, and powder coating and industrial painting operations with tools for measuring their key operating metrics against others in the industry.
By participating in the survey, finishing operations receive feedback that helps identify optimal shop floor practices and improve operations and business procedures. Hundreds of finishing operations participate in the survey every year, resulting in a wealth of helpful data and statistics. Each participant receives a custom report that can be used to assess areas of improvement including finishing technologies, processes, business strategies, and human resources.
In addition to the custom reporting, participants in the survey that meet a set of predetermined benchmarks will be qualify as Products Finishing Top Shops and will be celebrated in the pages of PF.
The Top Shops Benchmarking Survey will remain open through April 30, 2025. Qualifying Top Shops will be announced in the July issue of PF. Take the survey today!
