Description

MLPC, subsidiary of Atofina (Total group), announced a restructuring plan affecting 95 jobs out of 330 on two plants: Rion-des-Landes and Lesgor. The measure is due to the loss of contracts with GoodYear and the high rate of the euro currency, as exports reprent 80% of their production.
