Knauf Insulation monitors the cost to ship those products as the market fluctuates. Through a fuel surcharge and freight index fee per full or partial truckload some of the market fluctuations are alleviated. By calculating averages for the previous quarter and maintaining a flat rate fee table for each, the adjustments to the fees are determined for the next quarter. Fees are applied based on the order ship date which may differ from the date of the invoice.
