At 7:30 a.m. on December 2, 2021, an employee was attempting to start a new roll of foam on the foam winder. The employee was trained to place tape on the mandrel, start the mandrel so it would be spinning, and then cut and transfer the foam. The employee's hand got caught by the tape and pulled his arm into the winder. The employee was hospitalized to treat a fracture to his left arm.
