Due to the deterioration of financial results and equipment no longer being utilized at certain locations, the Company impaired property, plant and equipment of $10,493, $1,273, and $13,630, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Fair value of buildings and machinery and equipment was determined using market value and estimated salvage value, respectively, which was deemed the highest and best use of the assets. Further, due to the Company’s decision to divest two of its inactive European sites, the Company recorded impairment charges of $4,270 for the year ended December 31, 2017. Fair value was determined based on current real estate market conditions. A summary of these asset impairment charges is as follows:
