Lede

Three companies in the Materials sector reported planned workforce reductions in filings and local reports dated around September 15–16, 2026, affecting a combined 342 workers, according to state WARN filings and regional reporting. The notices and local coverage identify specific facilities and dates for some of the cuts.

Reported Layoffs

• Barrette Outdoor Living, Inc. — A local report said the company’s Tilton Road facility in Galloway Township, New Jersey, "plans to lay off 59 workers later this year," per the Press of Atlantic City. A separate state WARN filing reported by Yahoo and by state regulators lists a planned layoff of 59 employees at an Egg Harbor City–area operation with expected separation dates of Dec. 13 and Dec. 14, 2026.

• Banker Steel, a Division of Schuff Steel — A WARN filing with state regulators reported a planned layoff affecting 115 employees. The filing in the public WARN registry provided the employee count and timing but no additional operational details were included in the record.

• Perstorp Polyols, Inc. — A WARN filing with state regulators listed a planned reduction of 50 employees with an effective date of Nov. 2, 2026. The filing included the employee count but no further details were provided in the record.

Additional WARN filings recorded by state regulators duplicate the 59-employee Barrette Outdoor Living notice for Dec. 13, 2026; those filings align with the counts reported by Yahoo and local press but do not add operational context.
