MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) — Two Martinsville companies are cutting more than 90 jobs in separate layoffs.

Hanesbrands spokesman Matt Hall said 46 workers are being laid off from its Virginia Service Center. Separately, CPFilms says it's axing 45 jobs.

Winston-Salem-based Hanesbrands employs about 300 people in Martinsville.

Missy Hammond, a spokeswoman for CPFilms owner Solutia, said the company laid off about the same number of people earlier this year. About 400 people still work at the window film plant, she said.

Both companies announced the cutbacks Friday.
