NEVADA, Mo. (AP) — American Standard Brands says it will close its plant in southwest Missouri, costing 133 people their jobs.

The New Jersey-based company says its plant in Nevada will close June 30. It will relocate its production of chinaware products, such as toilets and bathroom sinks, to other plants.

The Springfield News-Leader reports plans for the existing plant were not disclosed.

The Nevada plant opened in 1970 by Crane Plumbing and has been a major employer in the community since then.

Crane Plumbing was merged with AS America, Inc., and Eljer, Inc., in 2008 to form American Standard Brands.

American Standard Brands is now part of LIXIL Water Technology, based in Luxembourg, with manufacturing across 50 plants worldwide.
