We take the threat posed by the SARS-CoV-2 virus very seriously and have taken precautionary measures to provide the best possible protection for all employees in our corporate group.

Management and Human Resources can be contacted internally by employees via a dedicated e-mail address for any questions regarding Covid-19 measures. Every Monday, all employees are informed about developments in the company, in Germany and worldwide on the specially set up FAQ page in the intranet.

Disinfectant is available at the individual operating sites and the frequency of cleaning the work areas has been increased. Until further notice, all business trips are suspended. For further information, please refer to the details for the respective countries. The employees of the Service and Sales departments can be reached by our customers by mail and telephone as usual. Additional security measures have been introduced in German production, but this will not lead to delays in order processing.
