1 insider bought €20k of shares over the last 90 days, the latest filed 18 Aug 2026.
This page follows insider dealings at Tredegar Corp as filed with SEC (Form 4), a company from the Chemicals & Materials sector based in Richmond, United States. The last twelve months, up to 18 October 2026, brought 87 filings signed by 21 insiders.
On the market, 1 insider bought (3 purchases totalling €27k) while 3 insiders sold (48 sales totalling €3.0M). No amount is published for 6 filings, which the totals therefore leave out. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. The largest single trade was a sale of €404k by Gottwald William M, published on 26 January 2026.
The most recent open-market purchase was published on 18 August 2026, 61 days ago. Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 2 days after the trade. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Keep in mind that insiders sell for many reasons unrelated to the outlook, from tax bills to estate planning.
With 87 filings in twelve months, the company is more active than the median of 19 filings across the 5,814 companies we follow on the same exchange. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 7 purchases against 63 sales.
Elsewhere in the same sector, our signals recently picked up insider purchases at Culp Inc. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.
Entry is the close on the day after publication, the first price a reader could act on. Prices in the listing currency. Past moves are not a forecast.
This score ranks the purchase within its own market. A position size is suggested only on the venues of the backtested strategy universe; elsewhere, signals stay on watch. Not investment advice.
Transparent value + quality ranking, distinct from the insider signal.

Tredegar Corp. (NYSE: TG) is a U.S.-listed industrial materials company headquartered in North Chesterfield, Virginia, near Richmond. For French-, Belgian- and Swiss-based investors, it is best viewed as a small-cap U.S. industrial with a focused portfolio in aluminum products and high-performance films. The company traces its roots back to 1946 and today operates mainly through two core businesses: aluminum extrusions and high-performance films. ([ir.tredegar.com](https://ir.tredegar.com/annual-reports?utm_source=openai))
In aluminum extrusions, Tredegar operates through Bonnell Aluminum, which manufactures custom soft-alloy and medium-strength extrusions primarily for North American building and construction, automotive, and specialty end markets. The business is positioned as a niche supplier rather than a commodity player, with differentiation built on customized solutions, manufacturing quality, and long-standing customer relationships. Management also notes a metal-cost pass-through mechanism, which helps the company offset part of aluminum price volatility. ([ir.tredegar.com](https://ir.tredegar.com/news-releases/news-release-details/tredegar-reports-second-quarter-2025-results?utm_source=openai))
The company’s second pillar, High Performance Films, focuses on surface protection films used in high-technology applications, including the global electronics industry, and certain automotive applications. Tredegar emphasizes technical know-how, reliability, and customer intimacy, supported by a manufacturing footprint that includes facilities in the United States and China, plus global sales and technical service capabilities. Historically, Tredegar also operated a specialized polyester films business for Latin American flexible packaging, but that business was sold to Oben Group in November 2024, simplifying the portfolio and sharpening the company’s strategic focus.

From a competitive standpoint, Tredegar is a specialized industrial rather than a large diversified materials group. In extrusions, it remains exposed to North American non-residential construction demand, automotive volumes, and U.S. tariff policy affecting imported aluminum products. Throughout 2025 and into early 2026, management highlighted the impact of Section 232 tariffs, imported product undervaluation, and near-term order volatility, while also pointing to better operating discipline and improved cash generation. ([ir.tredegar.com](https://ir.tredegar.com/news-releases/news-release-details/tredegar-reports-third-quarter-2025-results/?utm_source=openai))
Recent developments suggest a company in transition but with a clearer operating profile. Tredegar reported full-year 2024 results in March 2025 after the Terphane divestiture, then followed with first-quarter 2026 results in May 2026, reiterating that its core businesses continue to benefit from deep customer relationships and differentiated value propositions. For European investors, TG is therefore a U.S. industrial materials name listed on the NYSE, with a cyclical earnings profile but supported by technical products, a more streamlined portfolio, and an improving balance-sheet story.
