A glass container company is laying off more than 90 employees at its Portland facility next month.
Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. is planning to idle one of its glass manufacturing furnaces, according to a layoff notification letter written to the state of Oregon earlier this week.
The company said it will lay off 93 employees.
The Ohio-based company said it does not know if or when the furnace will resume operations in the future.
The layoffs are expected to begin Dec. 30.
This is one of multiple recent layoffs in the region including from the vegan beauty company Pacifica and online security company McAfee.
Those companies laid off a combined almost 200 employees late last month.
