BORRELL® Reaction to Coronavirus

At BORRELL® we have reacted to address the Coronavirus crisis in order to protect our employees, our customers and our community.

As suppliers to the food and agro-food industry, we have continued providing service to ensure that our customers can continue to supply the food chain, especially in these difficult times.

We keept active the production lines essential for our mission, always following the instructions and regulations of the authorities. This meant the reduction of shifts and the allocation of staff rotations in addition to the implementation of severe prevention and protection measures.

We continued to provide technical service, but attending only limited urgent emergencies.

From the first moment, we take preventive measures and prepare our IT and organizational infrastructure to avoid face-to-face work as much as possible and allowing teleworking for all our engineering and office departments.

We focused to make this situation of force majeure have the least impact on ongoing projects. Recent investments in new machine tools and manufacturing technologies together with recent staff expansions translate into greater potential production capacity that we hope to recover as soon as the situation allows.

At BORRELL® we want normality to be restored as soon as possible and we wish health for all and a speedy recovery for all those affected.

We deeply regret any personal loss and we stand in solidarity with all those affected and their loved ones.
