Nearly 300 manufacturing layoffs were announced Monday across Indiana, adding to the 30,000 job cuts the sector has handed the state in the past year.

In Indianapolis, Color-Box will shed 74 jobs at its cardboard-packaging plant, according to filings with the Indiana Department of Workforce Development.

Middlebury-based Patriot Homes says it is closing its 11-year-old Crystal Valley division, laying off 125 employees in Elkhart County.

In the past year, manufacturers in all sectors laid off or eliminated 30,000 jobs in Indiana, contributing to the state's 7.1 percent unemployment rate in November.
