Special Metals Corp. said Monday that it had laid off 74
workers at its Huntington works and
another seven at a nearby plant at Burnaugh, Ky.
"The layoffs
were due to adverse general industrial market conditions," Dwight Weber,
spokesman for Precision Castparts, Special Metals' parent company, said in an
email. "These folks were primarily in production and maintenance. We will
recall them as business improves. 542 hourly employees will be left at
Huntington and 125 at Burnaugh, post layoff."
According to
the Precision Castparts website, the Huntington
plant is the company's principal production site in the U.S.
It is supported by Burnaugh and a facility at Elkhart,
Ind. The website says the Huntington
facility is the largest of its type in the world devoted exclusively to the
development, production and sale of nickel alloys. Within the 130-acre are
fully integrated production facilities, research and development laboratories
and administrative offices.
Precision
Castparts acquired Huntington and Burnaugh when it bought Special Metals Corp.
The plants formerly were owned an operated by Inco Ltd. and operated as Inco
Alloys International.
