Come July, more than 100 workers in Maple Grove are expected to be laid off.
Teleflex, a Pennsylvania-based medical device provider, is closing all operations at its Maple Grove facility and expects to lay off 101 employees July 1, according to a notice filed last week with the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development.
The Maple Grove site, located at 6464 Sycamore Ct. N., was used to create diagnostic and interventional catheters. Laboratory and manufacturing operations are expected to cease by June 30 and a complete closure of the building is expected by March 2026.
A spokesperson for Teleflex did not immediately respond to a Pioneer Press request for comment.
The impacted employees are not part of a union and no bumping rights exist, according to the notice.
Earlier this year, Teleflex announced it would split into two public entities. The new entity, NewCo, will consist of its urology, acute care and OEM businesses while the other, RemainCo, houses hospital-focused vascular access, interventional and surgical businesses, MedTechDive reported.
The same day the split was announced, Teleflex also announced its roughly $790 million acquisition of “all of the vascular intervention business” of medical technology and device company Biotronik, according to a news release from Teleflex.
