                  Independent Auditors' Report



To the Plan Administrator, Savings Plan for
  the Employees of Tredegar Industries, Inc.


     We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets
available for benefits of the Savings Plan for the Employees of
Tredegar Industries, Inc. (Plan) as of December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1994.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets
available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                        DECEMBER 31, 1994


1.   Summary of significant accounting policies

          General - Tredegar Industries, Inc. (Tredegar), which
     engages directly or through subsidiaries in plastics and
     aluminum businesses, is a Virginia corporation that was
     organized in 1988 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ethyl
     Corporation.  On or about July 10, 1989 (Record Date),
     Ethyl Corporation distributed all of the outstanding shares
     of Tredegar common stock to the holders of common stock of
     Ethyl Corporation at the rate of one share of Tredegar
     common stock for every ten shares of Ethyl Corporation
     common stock held on the Record Date.

          The Savings Plan for the Employees of Tredegar
     Industries, Inc. (Plan) was adopted by the Board of
     Directors of Tredegar on June 14, 1989, and was approved by
     Ethyl Corporation, Tredegar's sole shareholder, on June 19,
     1989.  The Plan was effective as of July 1, 1989.  In
     connection with the establishment of the Plan and the
     distribution of Tredegar's common stock, the accounts of
     Tredegar employees in the Savings Plan for the Employees of
     Ethyl Corporation (Ethyl Plan) were transferred to the
     Plan.

          The Plan is subject to Titles I, II and III and is
     exempt from Title IV of the Employee Retirement Income
     Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).  Title IV of ERISA provides
     for federally sponsored insurance for plans that terminate
     with unfunded benefits.  No such insurance is provided to
     participants in this Plan, however, because the benefits
     that participants are entitled to receive are always equal
     to the value of their account balances and, for that
     reason, the Plan is always fully funded.  The value of a
     participant's account may change from time to time.  Each
     participant assumes the risk of fluctuations in the value
     of his account.

          The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have
     been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
     accounting principles.

          Security valuation - Investments are stated at fair
     value determined as follows:

          Money market funds       -    market price which is
                                        equivalent to cost

          Common stocks            -    last published sale price
                                        on the New York Stock 
                                        Exchange

1.   Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

          Security transactions and related investment income -
     Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date
     and dividend income is recorded as earned on the ex-
     dividend date.  Interest income is recorded as earned on
     the accrual basis.  Premiums and discounts on securities
     are not being amortized or accreted because the effect on
     the financial statements would not be significant and would
     have no effect on net asset values.  In determining the
     realized net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of
     securities is determined on an average cost basis.  The
     Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets
     available for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation)
     in the fair value of investments, which consists of the
     realized gains or losses and the change in unrealized
     appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.

2.   Description of Plan

          The Plan is a defined contribution plan.  Information
     regarding plan benefits and vesting is provided in the Plan
     and related documents which are available at Tredegar's
     main office at 1100 Boulders Parkway, Richmond, Virginia
     23225.

5.   Contributions and investment options (Continued)

          Participants in the Plan currently may select a program
     for investment in the Short-Term Investment Fund, Government
     Obligations Fund or Tredegar Industries, Inc. Common Stock
     Fund, or in any combination thereof in even multiples of
     10%.  Each participant may contribute a percentage of his or
     her base pay (as defined) ranging from a minimum of 1% to a
     maximum of 10%.  The contribution paid on behalf of the
     participant by Tredegar is equal to 50% of each
     participant's contribution.  Contributions made by Tredegar
     are invested in the Tredegar Industries, Inc. Common Stock
     Fund.

          No additional contributions may be invested in either
     the Ethyl Corporation Common Stock Fund (which was an
     investment option under the Ethyl Plan), the First Colony
     Corporation Common Stock Fund (which was created during 1993
     as the result of a distribution to Ethyl Corporation
     stockholders) or the Albemarle Corporation Common Stock Fund
     (which was created during 1994 as the result of a
     distribution to Ethyl Corporation stockholders).  However,
     existing investments in these Funds may continue or the
     participants may direct the transfer of their investment in
     these Funds to the Government Obligations Fund or the
     Tredegar Industries, Inc. Common Stock Fund.

          Investments in the Short-Term Investment Fund are
     selected by NationsBank (Trustee) from fund securities
     maturing within one year or revolving credit arrangements
     that are completely liquid investments.  Investments in the
     other active funds are made primarily in United States
     government obligations and Tredegar common stock. 
     Investments in the common stock of Ethyl Corporation, First
     Colony Corporation, and Albemarle Corporation are now held
     until liquidation or distribution under the Plan.  The
     United States government obligations selected for investment
     are United States Treasury notes or bills.  The Trustee is
     permitted under the trust agreement to invest monies held by
     it until such time as the funds are invested in accordance
     with participants' directions or disbursed in accordance
     with the terms of the Plan.  These permitted investments
     include certain commercial paper, variable notes,
     certificates of deposit, money market funds and obligations
     of or guaranteed by the government of the United States or
     any agency thereof.

7.   Federal income taxes

          The Plan is a defined contribution plan that is
     intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the
     Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code).  The Plan contains a
     cash or deferred arrangement that is designed to satisfy the
     requirements of Code Section 401(k).  Generally,
     contributions (other than employee after-tax contributions)
     to the Plan and earnings on those contributions are not
     taxable until distributed from the Plan.  The Plan was
     restated and amended effective January 1, 1994.  Tredegar
     has requested the Internal Revenue Service to issue a
     favorable determination letter concerning the form of the
     Plan under Code Section 401(a).  Although there can be no
     assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will issue a
     favorable determination letter with respect to the Plan,
     Tredegar expects that it will do so.

8.   Annual Short-Term Investment Fund distribution

          The Plan provides that an annual distribution of 75% of
     each participant's interest in the Short-Term Investment
     Fund as of the end of the preceding plan year will be made
     as promptly as practicable after the beginning of the new
     plan year unless a participant elects to transfer this
     distribution to the Government Obligations Fund or the 
     Tredegar Industries, Inc. Common Stock Fund.  Annual
     distributions in the amount of $1,665,194, $1,667,074, and
     $1,623,524 were paid from the Short-Term Investment Fund in
     February 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.  The remaining
     25% is carried over in the Short-Term Investment Fund.

9.   Administrative expenses

          Effective January 1, 1990, Trustee expenses are borne
     by the Plan.  All other expenses are borne by Tredegar.

10.  Forfeitures

          Employees who leave Tredegar before becoming fully
     vested in Tredegar contributions forfeit the value of their
     nonvested account.  Forfeitures are applied against
     Tredegar's contributions throughout the year.  Forfeitures
     were as follows:

                      1994            $64,113
                      1993             70,735
