Standard Register Plans Plant Closing as Sales Results Drop

CORNING, IA—Dayton, OH-based Standard Register (SR), looking to reduce manufacturing costs, says it will close its forms printing plant here. The company also announced the phasing out of its Dayton-based production of certain forms-handling equipment products.

Additionally, SR will consolidate field sales and support management, which officials say will result in improved operating efficiencies, and position the organization to capture market growth opportunities. The company will also offer an enhanced early retirement option to a number of its Dayton-based corporate headquarters employees.
