RBA vs TG Comparison

RB Global has evolved into a leading global marketplace that connects buyers and sellers of commercial assets and vehicles. It is the result of the 2023 combination of Ritchie Bros. and IAA. Ritchie Bros.' roots were as an auctioneer facilitating transactions of commercial, construction, and transportation equipment (excavators, bulldozers, forklifts, and commercial trucks and trailers). However, it has evolved into an omnichannel marketplace. IAA has similar roots, though primarily focused on the salvage auction segment for consumer automobiles. The group provides ancillary services including title processing, transportation/towing, financing, data and appraisal, and so on. Its activities are international, though skewing approximately two-thirds to North America.

Tredegar Corp, through its subsidiaries, engages in the manufacture of polyethylene plastic films, polyester films, and aluminum extrusions. Polyethylene plastic films produce plastic films, elastics, and laminate materials that are used in personal care products, surface protection films, and specialty and optical lighting applications. The company operates through segments including PE films, flexible packaging films, and aluminum extrusions. Aluminum extrusions generate the majority of revenue and provide high-quality, soft-alloy, medium-strength aluminum utilized in the building and construction, automotive, consumer durables, machinery and equipment, electrical, and distribution markets. Revenue is generated from the United States, Asia, and Brazil.
