I am sure there are many more professions that perform critical jobs that help us go through this crisis. As everybody tries to figure out how they can contribute, we are honoured that many of these professions wear workwear and protective clothing made with our fabrics. And that’s why we #keepgoing and do anything we can to continue our operation to ensure all these men and women can perform their jobs in a safe and comfortable way. In this blog my colleague Ivo explains what measures we have taken to continue our operations in a safe way for our people.
Right now, we are receiving additional requests for fabrics that goes into healthcare clothing. We are working closely together with our supply chain partners to see what we can do to speed things up and as such make our contribution to all those men and women out there, performing those critical jobs for us.
Thanks to you all for the great work you are doing; let’s all #keepgoing and I am sure we will overcome this crisis together.
