Layoffs continue in small manufacturing plants around West Virginia.
Armacell, a manufacturing facility of foam rubber in Spencer, has laid off sixteen employees in the past few weeks.
That's about 20% of the employee force.
Plant manager Mike Hodges says it's due to the economy and a downturn in orders.
Armacell's products are used in cars and household appliances.
Hodges says if the business picks back up, those laid off will be eligible to come back. |
