Green Bay Converting fire leads to fewer than 35 layoffs as recovery continues

Green Bay Converting aims to restart production in parts of its Larsen Road facility within about 60 days after a major warehouse fire.
The fire, described as the largest Green Bay has seen in about 30 years, damaged the warehouse during Blizzard Elsa and hindered firefighting efforts.
Officials have not determined the fire's cause as investigators continue to assess the scene.
Less than 35 of the more than 200 employees were laid off due to the disruption, with the company providing transition resources.
The company expects a partial return to offices and production within 60 days, with full production likely by summer.
Recovery includes cleaning production equipment, structural repairs, and remediation of the site as the next phases of work.
Warehouse rebuild will take longer, but is not expected to stop restarting production.
The firm continues to monitor third-party information to refine its recovery timeline.
Company leadership emphasized optimism about returning to pre-fire levels before year-end 2026.
State and local agencies are coordinating with the company to support affected workers.
