RR Donnelley to Close Danbury Plant

[Danbury, CT] City officials confirmed early Thursday afternoon that printing company RR Donnelley will close its Prindle Ln. plant. The shutdown will affect 145 workers. Mayor Mark Boughton said the city received a notice from the company that it would shut down its printing plant and lay off its workers starting in July.

In March, RR Donnelley closed a plant in Windsor. About 117 workers were laid off as a result of that closure.

Chicago-based RR Donnelley bought the Danbury printing operation from Banta Corp. The local company was founded as Danbury Printing & Litho by the late Cecil Previdi.
