When I read the article, it appeared to me that this shutdown is just of th=
eir manufacturing facilities in Williamsport, PA, not Shop-Vac as a whole. =
They have manufacturing facilities in Binghamton, NY as well as China.

ndreds-of-employees-to-lose-jobs/article_22df06ee-f77a-11ea-b643-0bc122c9e7=

uite surprising, given the ubiquity of their products! Then again, it is ha=
rd for manufacturing companies to manufacture when the Pennsylvania governm=

Hopefully we'll still be able to buy bags that fit.  I'm a big fan of
using drywall bags in my shop-vac.  They do a great job of catching dust
before it can clog the HEPA filter.
