The Serta Simmons Bedding plant in Windsor Locks is closing and 157 employees will be affected.

The company, SSB Manufacturing, has notified the state Department of Labor that it will be closing the plant at 100 D. Neil Hagen Drive.

The company said in a letter that the closure is expected to happen over time with the final plant closure around Aug. 4.  

Serta Simmons Bedding said earlier this year that it had entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement and restructuring would “substantially reduce the company’s funded debt from approximately $1.9 billion to approximately $300 million.

“We are building a high-performing and resilient supply chain at SSB so we can continue delivering exceptional service to our retail partners and sleepers. As part of this, we are optimizing our manufacturing footprint which includes expanding our operations in some areas and consolidating or closing other operations. We are grateful for the contributions that our Windsor Locks manufacturing team has made to SSB and are committed to supporting these associates through the transition,” Serta Simmons Bedding said in a statement.
