MILFORD, Ind. (WANE) - About 70 people will be out of work when a Milford company closes in March. Milford is just west of Syracuse in Koscuisko County.
Officials at Royal Building Products said the extended weakness in the housing market has hurt demand and profits. They also said they'll move most of the factory's remaining production to other plants.
The company makes vinyl decks, fences and railing for homes. Atlanta-based Georgia Gulf Corporation acquired Royal Building Products in 2006.
