Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Losses Associated With Plant Shutdowns, Asset Impairments And Restructurings, Unusual Items, Gains From Sale Of Assets And Other Items | The Company plans to close its PE Films manufacturing facility in Lake Zurich, Illinois, which produces elastic materials. Production at the Lake Zurich plant is expected to cease during the first half of 2020 with product transfers to the new elastic production lines at Terre Haute, Indiana (“Lake Zurich plant shutdown”). As a result of the Lake Zurich plant shutdown, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax cash costs of $7.6 million comprised of (i) customer-related costs ($0.7 million), (ii) severance and other employee related costs ($1.8 million), and (iii) asset disposal and other cash costs ($5.1 million). In addition, the Company expects non-cash asset write-offs and accelerated depreciation of $1.6 million. Total expenses associated with the Lake Zurich plant shutdown are $2.7 million since project inception. Cash expenditures were $0.5 million in 2019. Proceeds from the expected sale of Lake Zurich’s real property are estimated at approximately $5 million. The Company anticipates that the Lake Zurich plant shutdown will be completed by the end of 2020. The Company plans to consolidate the production of certain PE Films personal care products in Europe over the next twelve months (“PC Europe consolidation”). As a result of this consolidation, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax cash costs of $1.7 million, primarily for severance and customer-related costs. Total expenses associated with the PC Europe consolidation are $0.8 million since project inception. Cash expenditures were $0.5 million in 2019. In June 2018, the Company announced plans to close its facility in Shanghai, China, which primarily produced plastic films used as components for personal care products (“Shanghai plant shutdown”). Production ceased at this plant during the fourth quarter of 2018. Total expenses associated with the Shanghai plant shutdown are $4.1 million since project inception. Cash expenditures were $0.8 million in 2019 and $3.3 million since project inception. The plant facilities were sold in the third quarter of 2019, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $6.3 million, reported in “Other income (expense), net” in the consolidated statements of income. The Shanghai plant shutdown was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. Other pre-tax charges in 2019 include restructuring costs in PE Films for severance in the amount of $0.8 million, the write-off of inventory at PE Films’ Personal Care facility in Rétság, Hungary in the amount of $0.2 million, and the write-off of a Personal Care production line at the Guangzhou, China facility in the amount of $0.4 million.
