Printpack has announced that it will close its Fredericksburg, VA manufacturing plant. Production will be phased out over a period of months, and operations are expected to cease completely in the first quarter of 2016. The majority of Printpack’s label and tamper-evident band business currently running in Fredericksburg will be transferred to other Printpack plants in the coming months.
“The Fredericksburg plant has been an important contributor to the company’s success since its opening in 1981 and has been the foundation of our labels business since the late 1980s. The decision to close this facility was very difficult for us but necessary to enhance our competitiveness in a very challenging market,” said Dennis Love, Printpack’s chairman and CEO.
As part of the closure of the Fredericksburg plant, Printpack will reduce staffing in Fredericksburg in several phases over the coming months.
