Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Message from the CEO

15 Mar 2020

Dear Business Partners,

In light of the measures taken on March 12, 2020 by the National Security Council (CNS) and the Belgian Government for halting the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus), we inform you that our production facility is regularly operational. We continuously follow up Federal and Regional updates and recommendations.

Being BRC (AA) certified cobelPlast already has stringent hygienic rules in place but since few weeks, aiming to anticipate risks linked to Covid-19, we decided to introduce additional drastic measures in order to minimize at the maximum any risk of contamination:

  • External visitors are not authorized to enter the premises with the exception of rescue teams, sanitary inspections, police, fire brigade
  • Travels abroad have been banned with the exception of urgent customer technical support
  • Decision to exceptionally waive previous point will be taken on a case-by-case basis and after in-depth discussion with customer’s Senior Management
  • Overall hygienic, cleaning and disinfection rules have been drastically strengthened
  • Several additional sanitizer dispensers have been installed throughout the company
  • Additional preventive measures have been put in place for warehouse employees when checking-in external drivers who were anyhow never allowed to enter into the factory/warehouse
  • Moreover, the already rigorous hygiene, disinfection and cleaning rules which were applied in the locked space used by external drivers have been drastically increased as well
  • Home working has been facilitated for employees whose presence on site is not absolutely required
  • Production operators, and employees having to enter production areas, have to strictly follow the extra hygienic rules
  • Colleagues who feel abnormal symptoms are asked to stay home and contact their doctor for advice

 

At your disposal for any detail or clarification

 

Best regards


Guido VUOTTO
