Eagan, Minnesota-based Smyth Companies, a provider of labeling and packaging solutions, has announced the closure of its Wilmington, Massachusetts, digital and UV Flexo pressure-sensitive label printing facility as part of a post-acquisition consolidation.
The closure will impact 69 employees, including press operators, digital die cutters, material handlers, and maintenance technicians, commencing March 1, 2026, and ending on July 1, 2026.
Change is constant, and it's coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
