A WARN notice for this layoff is recorded on August 1, 2026.
Disclosed through an official WARN filing with the PA state workforce agency.
Summary
Stoelzle Glass USA temporarily laid off about 200 workers — roughly half its workforce at the Monaca, Pennsylvania plant — while completing a $100 million production upgrade including rebuilding a furnace, installing a new forming machine and improving forming, inspection, conveying and packaging operations. A notice from the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry reported the layoffs and the company said the workers are expected to be brought back by February 1 when the upgrade is finished. The furnace rebuild will raise melting capacity to about 400 tons daily and improve energy efficiency; the project is the primary reason given for the temporary workforce reduction. Stoelzle Glass purchased the former Anchor Hocking factory in 2021 and the company framed the layoffs as a temporary measure tied to the investment timetable.
Stoelzle Glass USA, Inc. disclosed this layoff in an official WARN (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification) notice recorded by the PA state workforce agency on August 1, 2026. The notice covers 200 employees in Monaca, PA (Beaver County).
