A flooring company that has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and is looking for a buyer has alerted the state that it would have to lay off more than 600 people at three locations, if it has to shut down.
Armstrong Flooring Inc. filed the WARN (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification) notice with the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry on Friday that 606 people would be permanently laid off at plants at 1067 Dillerville Road in Lancaster and at 1215 Loop Road in Lancaster and at an office at 1770 Hempstead Road in East Hempfield Township, Lancaster County between June 17 and July 1 if it can’t find a buyer. The company’s office is about 45 minutes from Harrisburg.
