Tthe situation around coronavirus is intensifying
significantly and is very dynamic.
In the meantime, the crisis is not only having an
impact on private life, but is also presenting totally new challenges to
business and industry.
Corona Crisis Team
In our corona crisis team, we at Sika Germany discuss
the daily changing situation and initiate possible measures to minimize corona
infection and ensure the ability to deliver to our customers and partners.
Sika is still able to deliver
As a result of our taken measures at the production
sites in Germany and abroad, we assure you at this point in time that we can
maintain production at all locations without restriction. Production is also
running smoothly at our sites in Italy and there is no confirmed case of coronavirus
so far.
Home office regulation for employees; important appointments and
construction site visits are still possible
Like many other companies in Germany, our employees in
the administrative departments work mainly in the home offices as well as our
sales employees. Nevertheless, it is of course still possible to attend
important meetings and construction site visits by arrangement. Our office and
sales staff can still be reached via the usual telephone numbers and E-Mail
addresses.
Security measures
Since many weeks, we have been recording and
monitoring the international travel activities of all employees who were in
risk areas or came into contact with suspected or infected corona cases. All
persons reported to us were sent home immediately.
In addition to hygiene measures and the use of the
home office, we are also attempting to secure long-term supply by increasing
our stocks of raw materials and finished products.
Nevertheless, we would like to inform you that
particularly the container capacities have been reduced due to the corona
crisis.
Regarding truck deliveries, governments continue to
insure the general transport of goods and merchandise, even across borders. Not
only because of the extended waiting times there, but also because of the
increased measures taken by the companies involved in the process, delays can
occur in the freight forwarding sector. Please take this special situation into
account when placing your orders and submit them to us in a timely manner.
We will
do our utmost to process your orders in the familiar high quality and best
possible delivery time. Of course, we will keep you informed about further
developments.
With kind regards
Management of Sika Deutschland GmbH
